Last week, we celebrated the season by giving each member of our team their choice of a turkey or ham to brighten holiday gatherings. But the generosity didn’t end there, together, we donated several hundred pounds of turkey and ham to our partners at Water Street Ministries, helping fuel their vital work across Lancaster County. Their mission brings hope, meals and essential support to individuals and families in need and we’re honored to stand alongside them.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this possible. Together, we’re making a meaningful impact right here in our community.

From start to finish, this event was all about gratitude and connection! We transformed our delivery area into a festive winter wonderland and our leadership team kept the celebration going by handing out hams and turkeys to every staff member, even those off-shift were able to stop by and pick theirs up.

The laughter, conversations and warm drinks made it a day to remember! We loved seeing everyone enjoy the extra treats, steak and eggs, hot dogs, coffee and cocoa, while taking a moment to connect with one another. Of course, a special visit from Santa made the day even more magical!

Kicking off the Season in style! Our leadership team went above and beyond to spread holiday cheer, rolling up their sleeves to hand out hams and turkeys to our incredible staff and that was just the beginning! The back delivery area was transformed into a magical winter wonderland, complete with decorated trees, wreaths, hay bales and heaters to keep everyone warm and cozy.

What’s a celebration without delicious treats? From hot chocolate and coffee to steak, eggs and hot dogs, we made sure everyone felt appreciated with great food and even greater company. Swipe through the photos to experience the smiles, the festive spirit and the joy of the season!

Our team rang in the season with a joyful gift exchange filled with laughter, surprises and holiday cheer! We began by sharing a holiday story, passed gifts around with plenty of twists and turns and even added a playful “steal” at the end.

The result? Smiles all around and everyone heading home with fun, festive treasures. A big thank-you to everyone who joined in and helped make this celebration so memorable!

Thanks to a generous anonymous donation, we’ve added a hula hoop to our facility and it’s already spreading smiles and fun! Hula hooping isn’t just a playful activity; it’s a fantastic way to boost physical fitness, improve coordination and support overall wellness.

We’re so grateful to the donor for bringing extra joy and movement to our day and a special shoutout to Cassidy, her hula hoop skills are seriously impressive!

A sweet start to December! We kicked off the month with a festive Pie Eating Contest because nothing says holiday spirit like pie. Taz, Kayla and Greg rose to the challenge (literally) and after plenty of mouthfuls, Greg took home the win!

Thank you to everyone who participated and cheered them on. Here’s to more fun and festive moments this season.

Today, we take a moment to reflect on gratitude and the importance of mental well-being during the holiday season. We are deeply thankful for our dedicated team, the individuals in our care and the community we proudly serve. While the holidays often bring joy, they can also bring stress. Remember to prioritize yourself, practice mindfulness, take breaks and reach out for support when needed.

From all of us at Lancaster Behavioral Health Hospital, we wish you a safe, peaceful and Happy Thanksgiving!

Treatment, Compassion & Hope

If you or a loved one is struggling and in need of behavioral health services, Lancaster Behavioral Health Hospital provides treatment, resources and support.

Through a partnership between Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health and Universal Health Services, we will provide inpatient and outpatient services for patients living with mental illness, substance abuse or co-occurring issues.

Lancaster Behavioral Health Hospital will be the only freestanding psychiatric hospital in Lancaster County, as well as the first facility in Lancaster County to offer inpatient behavioral health therapy for adolescents and a specialized women’s trauma program.

We will strive not only to provide excellent behavioral health services, but also to be a leader in the promotion of wellness, support the education of behavioral health professionals, and improve the Lancaster community’s understanding of mental health.
