About the Lakeview Center
As “the only” behavioral-health services inpatient and outpatient provider in Oswego County, Oswego Health has built its facility specifically to provide this specialized care.
The health system has renovated 42,000 square feet of the former Oswego Price Chopper location to include 32 inpatient beds.
The new location includes secure outdoor spaces, comfortable interior areas, and a kitchen area. In addition, Oswego Health will also provide primary-care services onsite to help those that use the facility “become healthier overall.”
