Coleman Health Services and Stark County Mental Health & Addiction Recovery are developing a new behavioral health urgent care center in Canton, Ohio, to provide round-the-clock crisis services. Slated for completion in fall 2026, the facility will offer immediate, on-site care for adults, youths, and families navigating behavioral health emergencies or substance abuse struggles.
Comprehensive Crisis Services in Canton
The center will operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, ensuring continuous access to care. By consolidating multiple levels of support under one roof, the facility intends to streamline treatment for individuals who might otherwise end up in hospital emergency rooms or the criminal justice system.
The service model encompasses several distinct stages of care:
- Prevention and early intervention programs designed to catch symptoms before they escalate.
- Dedicated crisis response units for immediate stabilization.
- Transition support services to guide patients into ongoing outpatient or residential care.
Integrating Mental Health and Addiction Care
This integrated approach allows clinical teams to address both conditions simultaneously rather than forcing patients to visit separate providers for overlapping needs.
When operational, the center will serve Stark County residents of all ages, creating a dedicated safety net for families and youth facing acute behavioral health challenges.
