Coachella Valley Behavioral Health is a state-the-art, 80-bed
hospital that addresses the significant need in the greater
Riverside County area for more accessible, high-quality behavioral
healthcare services. It will offer a full continuum of inpatient
and intensive outpatient behavioral healthcare services for adults,
older adults, and pediatric patients, including comprehensive
treatment for those who struggle with acute symptoms of general
mood disorders, thought disorders, and dual diagnosis/substance use
disorders. This hospital is one of the only freestanding behavioral
health hospitals in the region. In the past, most services like the
ones Coachella Valley offer were only available at facilities
located hours away.
“We look forward to providing the highest quality behavioral
healthcare to the Riverside County community,” said Chris Hunter,
Chief Executive Officer of Acadia Healthcare. “We are grateful to
local officials for supporting this effort. Aligned to our purpose
to ‘Lead Care with Light,’ Acadia will continue to expand access to
behavioral health treatment programs in more communities in
California and across the country with critical need.”
“This new hospital addresses a critical need for access to
behavioral health services that has rippled across our region and
state,” said Scott Hullinger, Chief Executive Officer of Coachella
Valley Behavioral Health. “It is estimated that the Riverside
County area has a deficit of approximately 1,200 behavioral health
beds. I want to thank our hospital’s leadership and staff for all
of their hard work in getting the hospital ready to treat patients,
as well as to our community health partners who we are excited to
partner within Indio and the surrounding communities. Together, we
can and will make a difference.”
