Acadia Opens Behavioral Health Hospital in Indio

Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. held the grand opening of its newest acute care hospital, Coachella Valley Behavioral Health, located at 81555 JFK Ct. in Indio. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held last week to mark its grand opening, with first patient admissions expected to follow in the coming days as the hospital completes its final preparations to provide care.

Coachella Valley Behavioral Health is an 80-bed hospital that addresses a significant need in the greater Riverside County area for more accessible behavioral healthcare services. It will offer a full continuum of inpatient and intensive outpatient behavioral healthcare services and is one of the only freestanding behavioral health hospitals in the region.

“This new hospital addresses a critical need for access to behavioral health services that has rippled across our region and state,” said Scott Hullinger, CEO 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.”
