Scottsdale-based MIND 24-7, an emerging leader in immediate-access behavioral health services, has opened its second location in Mesa, Arizona at 1138 South Higley Road and is currently accepting youth and adult patients. Like all MIND 24-7 locations, this location will be open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, aiming to address the urgent need for immediate access to mental health care. With the ability to serve up to 110 patients at a time at this new location, the company has hired over 150 additional behavioral health medical providers and operational staff members. The location will provide express (urgent care) and crisis (emergency care) services for both youth and adults, in addition to a progressions (short-term intensive outpatient) care program.
To introduce MIND 24-7 to the surrounding Mesa community, the MIND 24-7 team recently hosted several pre-opening appreciation events at the new location. Area healthcare providers, educators, and first responders were able to get a preview of MIND 24-7’s second facility in the Phoenix area, meet members of the staff, and learn more about the services that will be offered to the community.
“MIND 24-7 is a pivotal resource in the community for those who need an immediate mental health evaluation for their loved one with an urgent need. It also provides a place for an individual to be monitored if needed until a bed opens up at a more long-term facility,” community partner Sergeant David Granniss with the Buckeye Police Crisis Response Team explains. “We have received great feedback from area residents who have utilized MIND 24-7 and their services.”
“We are pleased to open this state-of-the-art behavioral health clinic for the communities of Mesa and greater Phoenix,” said Adrienne Opalka, MIND 24-7’s Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder. “We are here 24 hours a day for adults and youth experiencing urgent mental health issues. MIND 24-7 is an open door to mental health care, around the clock.”
By the end of February, MIND 24-7 will have three operational facilities in the Phoenix area able to serve a total of over 100 patients at a time, with plans of rapid expansion across the country. The company’s very first facility opened on 24th Street and Thomas Road in Phoenix last September, providing both express and crisis mental health care for the area’s youth. A third MIND 24-7 location is planned for North-Central Phoenix in the Metro Center area and will initially focus on youth express & crisis mental health care, eventually adding adult services as well. MIND 24-7 facilities are open around the clock and do not require appointments – addressing the urgent need for immediate walk-in access to mental health care.
