About Us

Welcome From the CEO

Welcome to Parkwood Behavioral Health System in Olive Branch. Parkwood is located on a beautiful 37-acre campus in the northwest corner of Desoto County in North Mississippi. You will find our caring and compassionate staff eager to help you upon arrival at our facility. We are committed to providing the highest level of quality care in a secure, confidential environment.

At Parkwood, we care for a wide age range of patients from the youngest age of 5 to senior adulthood. Whether you or someone in your family is struggling with mental health issues, depression, thoughts of suicide or self-harm or substance use, we offer multiple inpatient mental health and outpatient mental health programs specifically designed to meet your needs. The physicians and staff at our behavioral health center and mental health facility strive to provide the best outcomes possible and help patients progress towards a more independent, self-fulfilling lifestyle.

For over 30 years, we have been providing quality care with a home-town feel to our patients and their families. What started as a 60-bed hospital has now grown to 148 beds to meet the needs of our community and surrounding areas. On behalf of all the physicians and staff at Parkwood, I sincerely thank you for considering our facility in your time of need. We look forward to the opportunity to help you or your loved one achieve a better future.

Sincerely,
Alicia Plunkett, MSN, DNP
