Psychiatric Nursing
At Columbia St. Mary’s our goal is always to treat the whole person. This is perhaps
nowhere more evident than in our Mental Health units. Here, skilled and compassionate
professionals treat a variety of mental illnesses and addictions while also addressing
the concurrent medical issues that are often present. Our nurses are on the front
line of all our efforts, meeting each patient’s medical and psychological needs
and ensuring that each patient’s treatment plan is being followed.
In Columbia St. Mary’s unique Mental Health treatment milieu, our nurses play a
critical role. Do you enjoy thinking on your feet? Do you prefer to flex your therapeutic
muscles as you work with the "whole patient?" Our dedicated team of doctors, nurses
and therapists works closely to ensure our patients’ unique treatment needs are

illness and addiction in an environment of respect, dignity and compassion. Our
