About Millwood Hospital
Millwood Hospital is a 24-hour freestanding behavioral health hospital at 1011 North Cooper Street in Arlington, Texas, serving the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex with a full continuum of psychiatric and substance use treatment. The hospital is Joint Commission accredited and registered with SAMHSA as a substance use treatment facility, with capabilities spanning medical detox, acute inpatient psychiatric care, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and standard outpatient programming through its Branches network.
Millwood is unusually broad in the populations it serves. Children as young as five, adolescents, adults, and senior adults each have dedicated programming, with chemical dependency treatment available for teens ages 12-17 and adults. The hospital’s multidisciplinary team provides 24-hour structured supervision for patients in acute psychiatric or substance use crisis, with cognitive behavioral therapy, group and individual sessions, family work, and psychiatric medication management forming the core of treatment. Dual diagnosis — concurrent mental health and substance use disorders — is treated as the rule rather than the exception.
The hospital provides confidential, no-cost assessments 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with a multidisciplinary intake team available to evaluate level-of-care needs. ASL accessibility makes Millwood one of the more inclusive options for Deaf and hard-of-hearing patients in the metroplex. Court-ordered referrals are accepted, as are voluntary admissions. Payment options are broad: Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay are all accepted — making this one of the more financially accessible inpatient psychiatric options in North Texas.
Millwood was voted Best Hospital and recognized as one of the Best Psychiatric Facilities by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Recent patient satisfaction data published by the hospital shows 4.76/5 ‘treated with dignity and respect’ and 4.80/5 ‘feel better than when admitted.’ The main number is (817) 261-3121.
