Download PDF

Bowen Center is a leading provider of mental healthcare in northern Indiana, servicing 21 counties with nearly 1,300 staff. Focused on serving the community’s mental health and addiction needs, the Bowen Center is a patient-first organization who believes in a total care model that integrates mind, body, and spirit into treatment. Remarkable efforts to digitally transform separate the Bowen Center from the average model for care delivery. While mental health services are the foundation for the organization, extending individualized care to patients using tools such as telemedicine and internal collaboration among clinicians demonstrate their commitment to putting patients first.
