The Behavioral Emergency Center staff provides emergency care, assessment and referrals for people of all ages in a behavioral crisis related to either mental health or substance abuse. The center is located on the Riverside campus of University of Minnesota Medical Center, Fairview. Patients first come to the Emergency Department, are checked for medical needs, and then directed to the nearby Behavioral Emergency Center.

The Behavioral Emergency Center is open each day from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m., when most behavioral emergency patients come to our facility. Other times, the patients are cared for in the Emergency Department. The staff includes physicians, registered nurses, mental health therapists and psychiatric technicians.
