BROOKINGS – Brookings Behavioral Health & Wellness continues to monitor the rapidly changing COVID-19 outbreak, and it is taking precautionary actions to keep staff, clients and the community healthy. 

“We have made the decision to operate services remotely and provide all services via telehealth. However, all mental health emergency services will remain in place and can be accessed by calling 605-697-2850,” Executive Director Mary Beth Fishback said in prepared statement.

Implementation of telehealth services have taken effect as of Tuesday. Patients with appointments already scheduled can expect a call from Brookings Behavioral Health & Wellness to discuss telehealth services. 

“If you would like to schedule an appointment, please feel free to call our office, and one of our admininstrative staff will be happy to help you. Visit our website at www.brookingsivycenter.org for updates or to contact us via email,” Fishback said.

“Our team is working diligently to ensure minimal disruption to services, and we remain committed to our mission of providing comprehensive behavioral healthcare to Brookings County.”
