Our approach to care
Centra offers two dedicated options to meet urgent psychiatric and behavioral health needs—one designed specifically for adults and the other focused on emergent mental health care for all ages. Together, these services offer critical pathways to timely and compassionate mental health care in the region.
CMG Piedmont Psychiatric Adult Urgent Care (PPAUC) provides walk-in access to specialized psychiatric services for adults 18 and older, bridging the gap between the onset of symptoms and a scheduled psychiatric appointment.
The EmPATH unit delivers immediate, individualized care in a therapeutic, open setting that reduces isolation and wait times while fostering real-time support and collaboration with behavioral health professionals for those experiencing an acute behavioral health crisis.
