Assessment 24/7

Abilene Behavioral Health provides various caring options to help people of all ages. Many times problems can be addressed in a less restrictive environment.

All referrals begin with a no-charge assessment by a qualified mental health professional. The assessment concludes with recommendations for treatment. Only a psychiatrist can admit to an inpatient program.

Referral Relations:


The Abilene Behavioral Health's Services Teams view its patient care efforts as an extension of the professional community. We communicate with other referral sources from the outset of the initial communication through treatment and discharge and into aftercare. Our system makes it convenient for the professional community to access services, as we manage clinical information in a confidential but appropriate manner when communicating with other health care professionals. Abilene Behavioral Health has several access center locations open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, staffed with therapists.

Our access centers provide:

  • Crisis intervention
  • Confidential assessments
  • Referrals and admissions
  • Mental Health Information
  • Substance Abuse Information

Assessment Process
Following the assessment, the staff of each access center will make referrals for outpatient, partial hospital or inpatient care based on individual treatment needs.

Our access centers can also help families determine the financial resources available for health care costs.
