What is Behavioral Health with Urgent Care?
Traditional urgent care centers have been around for over 40 years, providing quick and affordable walk-in care for life’s minor bumps, bruises, coughs, and colds.
Hackensack Meridian Health is the first in the nation to develop an urgent care with additional services to directly provide immediate care for mental and behavioral health issues and concerns (where there are no immediate safety risks).
Urgent care with Behavioral Health does not replace your regular psychiatrist or mental health professional or when going to the nearest hospital emergency room is necessary.
Why offer Behavioral Health and Urgent Care together?
By combining medical urgent care services with behavioral health expertise, we can provide a thorough evaluation and diagnosis of physical medical conditions and mental health-related issues.
In many cases, symptoms like depression could be related to an underlying or undiagnosed medical condition (like a thyroid condition, hypertension, or chronic illness).
By visiting our office, our clinical team is equipped to identify medical conditions that may impact mental or behavior and understand and treat behavioral health conditions.
