Separate the three needs

Urgent safety support and planned MVBH treatment serve different needs. Contacting MVBH starts a conversation, not a confirmed admission or start date.

For planned care, call or submit the contact form with basic contact details. MVBH can explain current assessment, availability, insurance and admissions requirements. Eligibility and clinical fit must be confirmed before treatment begins.

In what order should I use local resources and contact MVBH?

Address immediate safety first, then discuss planned Massachusetts care when appropriate. Review regional care boundaries and use requesting an MVBH callback to begin an inquiry. A callback request does not guarantee admission or a starting date.

    For routine treatment planning, contact MVBH admissions. Call or text 988 for suicidal thoughts or emotional distress, and call 911 for immediate danger.

  2. Verify Connecticut Information

    Continue following current hospital instructions or directions from treating clinicians, and contact MVBH separately about planned outpatient care.

  3. Begin MVBH Admissions

    Call MVBH or submit contact details through the callback form. This starts an inquiry, not an admission or confirmed treatment date.

  4. Continue the Admissions Steps
