To navigate the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Mental Health Partners’ (MHP) has formed an internal COVID-19 Recovery Taskforce to create and implement a Transition Plan that is creating a process for staff to return to offices and in-person client services to resume. This methodical and diligent plan is based on a variety of factors, including the ability to ensure staff and client safety, alignment with local public health organizations, and other operational processes.

Based on the recommendation of this Taskforce, MHP will continue to provide most of our services remotely via telehealth, except for in-person services currently offered at certain locations, through the summer of 2020. As portions of the Transition Plan are implemented, MHP will begin to offer more in-person service options and re-open MHP facilities that are presently closed. However, this process will be gradual to ensure client and staff safety.

For details about which MHP locations are currently open for in-person services, please refer to the information below or visit www.mhpcolorado.org/about/locations. Clients will be contacted directly by their providers or CARE team staff regarding any adjustments to their delivery of care.

We acknowledge these continued modifications may cause challenges for some of our clients or community members and appreciative of the patience of clients and community partners during this time. However, we are heartened to see the accessibility and quality of our services have been maintained during this time and have received positive feedback from clients regarding our telehealth services. Clients can provide feedback regarding their experience with MHP’s telehealth services via this short survey: www.mhpcolorado.org/are-you-a-client-of-mhp-take-our-short-telehealth-experience-survey.
