The Beatrice Community Hospital Emergency Department has entered into a partnership with Bryan Health to provide mental health triage services via telehealth.
The service is available 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. seven days a week.
This service will allow for patients to be screened by Bryan Health providers via electronic communications to determine if they may need inpatient care. Previously, patients who might have been considered candidates for inpatient care had to be transported to the Bryan ED for screening, and then if inpatient care was deemed unnecessary the patient had to find transportation to return home.
If inpatient care is not prescribed, patients in the BCH or Bryan Health emergency departments are provided with a treatment plan for follow-up care.
