Our Services
At Spring Harbor, we are here to help you and your family with the finest inpatient psychiatric care for adults, children and adolescents. As the psychiatric hospital of the MaineHealth system, partnering with Maine Medical Center and other system hospitals, we have been providing the care and treatment for individuals suffering from mental illness in Southern Maine for over 15 years.
Many of our patients experience serious depression, anxiety, psychosis or other mental illness, and may have a co-occurring substance use disorder. The entire Spring Harbor staff is dedicated to providing compassionate care in a secure, warm, welcoming environment to treat all types of psychiatric illness.
For healthcare professionals looking to refer a patient to the hospital, please call 1-866-857-6644 or 207-761-6644. TTY Users dial 711 (Maine Relay).
Some of the things that can signal your need for an acute level of care can include overwhelming feelings of depression or fear, and you may be to the point of hurting yourself or others. Here are some questions you can ask yourself or family member:
Does your depression or anxiety prevent you from functioning at home, work or school?
Are you unable to sleep, eat or take care of personal hygiene because your stress level is high?
Is your alcohol, drug or medication use out of control?
Are you having hallucinations or do you think people are plotting against or trying to hurt you?
Are you suicidal?
Are others telling you that they are scared or concerned for you?
If you are in crisis or suicidal, please call the Maine Crisis Hotline at 1-888-568-1112.
Spring Harbor Hospital accepts referrals from psychiatrists, crisis teams and/or emergency rooms.
