Hill Crest Behavioral Health Services (or Hill Crest Hospital) is a full-service psychiatric hospital located at 6869 5th Avenue South. The hospital is owned by Psychiatric Solutions, Inc. of Franklin, Tennessee.
Hill Crest was opened in 1969, and currently is licensed for 80 beds.
In June 2008, Hill Crest opposed St Vincent's East's application to begin its own 80-bed in-house psychiatric department. St Vincent's was granted the beds in November the wake of the closure of Carraway Methodist Medical Center, despite Hill Crest's and Trinity Medical Center's opposition.
