Foundations Behavioral Health

The facility provides innovative behavioral health treatment to children, adolescents, and young adults, offering a comprehensive network of behavioral, psychiatric, educational, and community services. As an Autism Spectrum Disorders Center for Excellence, Foundations provides specialized care in a homelike, secure, and nurturing environment. The campus includes a licensed school, multiple residential facilities, and activity space, serving as a restorative environment for young patients. Foundations Behavioral Health is part of Universal Health Services (UHS), a large healthcare management company, which provides career infrastructure and benefits support for employees. For nurses, Foundations offers opportunities in pediatric and adolescent behavioral health, a specialized and growing area of nursing. The facility hires Registered Nurses for night shifts (7pm–7:30am) with an every-other-weekend commitment, and offers overtime opportunities. A notable incentive is a $15,000 commitment bonus for qualifying RN positions. However, employee reviews indicate a challenging workplace culture, with an overall Indeed rating of 2.8 out of 5 stars across 125 reviews, reflecting concerns about management, job security, and workplace culture. The work is described as both challenging and rewarding, suited to nurses with a passion for adolescent mental health and behavioral care.
