The ACT team delivers psychiatric counseling and other community services to the homes of patients who have struggled with traditional outpatient care. These patients typically experience higher levels of emergency care, inpatient care or incarceration.
ACT is supported by a contract with the City of Albuquerque. Our case managers, peer specialists, nurses, therapists and providers fan out through the city to meet patients at home and collaborate on working toward recovery goals.
