Town of New Canaan partners with Silver Hill Hospital to provide residents in urgent need with mental health assessments

The Town of New Canaan has partnered with Silver Hill Hospital to provide New Canaan residents in urgent need of mental health treatment with a timely psychiatric assessment and tailored referral for ongoing care.

The New Canaan Urgent Assessment (NCUA) Program serves children, adolescents and adults who are New Canaan residents at no out-of-pocket cost.

The Assessment Program is available by advance appointment only and every effort will be made to offer an assessment appointment within 48 hours of an intake call. The program is available to non-New Canaan residents, and will be subject to the member’s plan coverage benefits, which may include out-of-pocket expenses such as deductibles and copays.

In order to schedule an intake call, please email NCUA@silverhillhospital.org or call Silver Hill Hospital admissions at 1-866-542-4455 and indicate that you are inquiring about the New Canaan Urgent Assessment Program.
