By GlobalDataCN Guidance CEO Jeffrey Friedman said: “Launching the Community Crisis Center is bringing a new kind of innovative urgent care to Long Island.
“Through this landmark facility, individuals in crisis will have a dedicated place to go, any time of day or night, where they can receive immediate care and avoid unnecessary hospital visits. This centre stands as a place where people are met with kindness and compassion and given the tools to find hope, healing and stability.”
The crisis centre will officially begin operations on 6 December.
Situated alongside CN Guidance’s Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic, the facility has received support from the New York State Office of Mental Health and Nassau County.
It aims to bridge the gap between emergency departments and community-based care.
