Behavioral Health System Baltimore (BHSB) has partnered with Gaudenzia, Inc. to open a new Opioid Crisis Service Unit.

The crisis services will include:
- Urgent/Walk-in screening and referral 24 hours a day at the Gaudenzia, Park Heights location.
- Comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment to determine treatment needs and appropriate ASAM level of care.
- Inpatient stay for up to 96 hours with referral to another level of care.
- Evaluation for Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT), Buprenorphine induction, and linkage to community services for follow-up care.
- Clinical Crisis Stabilization Services such as counseling, de-escalation, treatment and safety planning.
- Care coordination to assist with linkage to ongoing care and warm hand off to next level of care.
