Unity Heath Opens Adolescent Recovery and Wellness Unit

What a great day at Unity Health’s Ribbon Cutting for the new Adolescent Recovery and Wellness unit! Signet Health President and CEO Joy Figarsky shares: “What an incredible reminder that people and partnerships are everything. Our journey with Unity Health began in 2006, when we partnered to manage their behavioral health program. After a successful decade together, the hospital chose to bring those services in-house.

Fast forward to 2025, and a full-circle moment! We were honored to be invited back by Unity’s CEO, along with the CNO who was part of our very first partnership.

Today, we’re proud to partner with Unity Health to manage:
• Six acute inpatient behavioral health programs across three cities
• A large multisite outpatient behavioral health program
• A state-of-the-art adolescent residential substance use treatment program—the first of its kind in the state

This partnership reflects what can happen when organizations share a commitment to expanding access to high-quality behavioral healthcare. Thank you to everyone at Unity Health and Signet Health who has helped make this journey possible.”
