Immediate addiction treatment in Texas is the HHSC Urgent Services list
Updated
The HHSC Mental Health and Substance Use page under Urgent Services names 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline; Veterans Crisis Line, 9-8-8 option 1; Texas 2-1-1, option 8; 24/7 Local Mental Health Authority Crisis Hotline for substance use and other crisis services. Urgent Services on that page do not attach a same-day residential bed time. Immediate addiction treatment in Texas is named on that page.
Emergency addiction treatment
For mental health or substance use emergencies where safety or the safety of others is at immediate risk, that HHSC page says to dial 9-1-1.
Crisis addiction treatment
Crisis services are available 24/7 and include a prompt face-to-face crisis assessment, crisis intervention services, a crisis follow-up and relapse prevention services. Call the crisis hotline of the local mental health or local behavioral health authority for the county. Find by searching for the county in the HHSC crisis table.
Walk in addiction treatment
Adult Substance Use Residential Treatment Services and Outpatient Treatment Services are found by contacting the substance use treatment program directly, the local OSAR, or the Local Mental or Local Behavioral Health Authority. Those How Do I Get pages do not set a walk-in bed hour.
