SalusCare reopened its Crisis Stabilization Unit at its Colonial Campus in Fort Myers, almost eight months after it suffered damage from Hurricane Ian. The unit, 10140 Deer Run Farms Road, just south of Colonial Boulevard and east of Plantation Road, is where some of the area’s most urgent and mental health crises are treated. During the storm, SalusCare’s 46-bed CSU was flooded, with moisture rising 2 feet up the walls. The cost to repair and reopen the facility was about $1.3 million, with no insurance reimbursement to date. In total, SalusCare is spending close to $4 million to bring all its facilities back to pre-hurricane condition, with a total property insurance reimbursement of $260,000. While the unit was closed, SalusCare estimated it lost more than $5 million in revenue, and about 300 patients per month had to find care elsewhere. The closure impacted an estimated 2,400 patients while the CSU was closed who had to seek treatment at Lee Health emergency department, Park Royal Hospital, the David Lawrence Center and Charlotte Behavioral Health Care.
