Doylestown is introducing a groundbreaking addition to mental health services with the Innovative Crisis Stabilization Center.

Doylestown is introducing a groundbreaking addition to mental health services in The Keystone State with the Innovative Crisis Stabilization Center, writes Wenjing Ding for Bucks County Courier Times.  

Construction for the facility is set for 2024 and will be the first of its kind in Pennsylvania. It will serve 7,000 patients annually. The center would provide 24-hour observation and serve people with a variety of needs, including mental health, drug and alcohol use, intellectual disabilities, physical health, and more.  

The patient gets treatment as soon as they enter the calming space. There will be separate lobbies and rooms for children and adults, as well as accommodation for visiting families. Those in need of more acute services such as inpatient facilities and long-term drug and alcohol treatment can also get referrals for treatment.  

The facility is in collaboration with the Lenape Valley Foundation, Doylestown Health, Bucks County Department of Behavioral Health/Developmental Programs, and the Bucks County Drug & Alcohol Commission.  

The center will be located next to the Lenape Valley Foundation building. It will also feature 24/7 crisis telephones, mobile crisis services, 23-hour stabilization units, and withdrawal management.

Mama Traore, the Executive Director of the US Malian Diaspora and Locals Coalition stated”As we embark on the US Malian Diaspora’s Trade Mission 2023, we are not merely crafting a moment in history; we are authoring a chapter in the story of Mali’s resurgence and the strengthening of our ties with the United States’ private sectors. headtopics.com

Bucks County Behavioral Health Crisis Center called “creative and bold”

Freda R. Savana

Plans for a far more effective and comprehensive way to help those struggling with mental illness and substance abuse disorders are progressing in Doylestown, according to experts in the field.

Those involved with the innovative effort to create the Bucks County Behavioral Health Crisis Center recently gathered at Lenape Valley Foundation to share details about the first-of-its kind facility in Pennsylvania.

Sharon Curran, Lenape Valley Foundation’s CEO, said the pandemic was illustrative in showing how many in crisis were not always receiving the appropriate care in the appropriate place.

“The ER was their first touch point with behavioral services,” said Curran. While the emergency room can provide critical, immediate support, the new crisis stabilization center, she explained, will bring together behavioral health’s “best practices” to address the wide range of needs for those in crisis.

“Under one roof, the center will provide all the components of crisis service that are now fractured across our system, including mental health, drug and alcohol, intellectual disabilities, first responders, law enforcement, physical health, homeless outreach and other services,” the Doylestown-based behavioral health foundation said.

“It’s creative and bold,” said Doylestown Health CEO Jim Brexler, of the ambitious plan.

The 22,000-square-foot crisis stabilization center will be located next to Lenape Valley Foundation on the campus of Doylestown Hospital on West State Street. It’s the last piece of developable land the healthcare system owns, noted Brexler, citing the critical importance of the project.

The collaborative undertaking brought together Lenape Valley Foundation, Doylestown Health, Bucks County Department of Behavioral Health/Developmental Programs, Bucks County Drug and Alcohol Commission, Magellan Behavioral Health and the National Alliance of Mental Illness. Each is playing a pivotal role in the highly anticipated and greatly needed center, officials said.

“This is such a smart decision,” said Rachael Neff, Bucks County…
