Levels of Care

Crisis Services address the needs of those facing an acute episode of psychiatric illness or substance use disorder. Upon evaluation, crisis counseling may lessen the acuity, permitting referral to traditional or intensive outpatient treatment; or may result in admission to medically-supervised in-patient services. Meridian is not a hospital, however, and our inpatient units do not serve those who need significant medical or surgical care.
