Southeast Iowa Healthcare & Behavioral Center

Southeast Iowa Healthcare Center is a 55-bed nursing facility offering specialized services for individuals with mental illnesses, located in Keokuk, Iowa. The community provides psychiatric nursing care with an emphasis on treating residents with psychiatric-based conditions, supported by a licensed psychiatrist who manages medication and behavior modification.

The facility's restorative team works closely with residents through individualized programs to help maintain and enhance their abilities for everyday living. Staff focus on strengthening mobility, improving balance, and supporting essential skills such as walking, transferring, dressing, and personal care. When functional decline is observed, the team communicates promptly with the resident's primary care provider to determine whether progressive physical or occupational therapy may be appropriate.

An Activity Director schedules a diverse range of activities including crafts, exercises, van rides, shopping, community lunches, and parades, with emphasis placed on activities that promote engagement and belonging. One-on-one activities such as Bible Study are also offered to residents.

The community receives resident referrals from hospitals, traditional nursing facilities, assisted living, and community-based programs. Telehealth services are available to assist with the admission process. The staff is comprised of experienced and compassionate professionals committed to providing superior care in a warm and inviting environment.
