Integrity Healthcare of Cobden is filled with very special people and it takes more special staff to provide their care.  The facility specializes in behavioral health services, providing skilled services for long and short term stays and providing respite care for short times.  The facility has an expert team of therapists providing physical, occupation and speech therapy services. In addition to short term respite care, the facility offers short term rehab to home services. The facility has a special contract with the Veterans Administration to provide care to our veterans and they are certified by Medicare and by Medicaid.

Integrity Healthcare of Cobden, a behavioral health facility, is located on the south side of this small agriculture based community. Known for the Cobden Appleknockers and an annual Peach Festival, Cobden also sits in the heart of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail. Families that live in and around Cobden know each other and when somebody needs help, they all join together to provide that needed assistance. The same ‘family spirit’ is enjoyed within the walls of this facility. Staff are all local people who reach out to make certain that the facility’s residents become a part of that big family.  They provide Care You Can Trust
