Overview

Little Creek Behavioral Health
161 Skunk Hollow Rd
Conway, AR 72032

 

Little Creek Behavioral Health is a 64-bed residential treatment facility located in Conway, Arkansas. At our 37-acre campus, located just outside the state capital of Little Rock, we provide care for out-of-state children and adolescents who are struggling with mental health challenges. We closely collaborate with parents, caregivers, guardians, and community professionals to ensure that our young patients receive the best and most appropriate care possible on their road to recovery.

 

Our psychiatric residential treatment facility (PRTF) gives each child and adolescent the chance to address key issues related to their mental health concerns while providing the care and support required to promote success.

In addition to our primary PRTF, we offer a program that helps children and adolescents who are hard of hearing to recover from their mental health challenges.


Psychiatric patients require care from specialty-trained professionals, in a highly-specialized, and quality-focused environment. We are currently seeking to add a Full-Time, Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist to our skilled and patient focused team.
