Message from the Board of
Directors
Eagleville Foundation,
Eagleville Hospital and Riverside Care, Inc. Taken from the
Eagleville Hospital 2005 Annual Report
“As the need for behavioral health treatment continues to
rise, Eagleville Hospital and its sister agency, Riverside Care,
Inc., have become increasingly recognized as leaders in the
field. During fiscal year 2005, our facilities served more than
6,000 individuals, reinforcing their reputations as important
providers of high quality care.”
“Our patient base increased dramatically. We experienced a 34
percent increase in admissions outside our home region,
expanding our service area into the Lehigh Valley, Pocono
region, and parts of northern New Jersey. Overall, admissions
increased 24 percent compared with the prior year.”
“Eagleville responded to community demand by increasing the
number of non-hospital short term and detoxification beds. Our
hospital and non-hospital dual diagnosis programs (co-occurring
mental illness, physical illness and addiction) experienced 90
percent occupancy. Demand for high quality treatment that
addresses physical, mental, educational and vocational needs of
patients will undoubtedly lead to further expansion of services
offered by Eagleville Hospital and Riverside Care, Inc.”
“The work of Eagleville Hospital and Riverside Care, Inc.
will continue to take us farther into the communities that
surround us. With your much appreciated support, and the support
of the Eagleville board of directors, staff, alumni, partners,
friends and volunteers, we will keep working to overcome
challenges as they arise, and to sustain our mission of
providing the highest quality patient care. As we approach the
hospital’s 100th anniversary in 2009, we look to the future as
we continue to build upon a rich history of service.”
