The center is operated by Calm Source and will be open for patients experiencing a mental health crisis who can receive treatment there for up to 23 hours. They will be diagnosed by a therapist or psychiatrist and then referred to the next level of care before leaving.
The new location is the second 23-hour crisis center in the area, and Calm Source is looking to bring on additional staff to keep it open seven days a week, the report said.
At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place October 20–22 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
