Your Health and Safety Comes First

It’s okay keep your appointment

Our clinics remain open for normal business hours. Please stay tuned for any further updates and changes. We are closely monitoring the situation with your overall health and safety in mind.

Beginning Monday, March 23, 2020, we are facilitating the delivery of clinical services in a manner that decreases the need for in-person visits. We will be offering telehealth (e.g. video visits), online counseling, and telephone visits per provider as an alternative option for many ABC patients.

At American Behavioral Clinics, our number one priority is the health and safety of our patients. Please know we have taken extra measures to ensure that our clinics remain safe and ready to serve you and your families. We are following the guidelines from trusted sources, including the World Health Organization (WHO),  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Wisconsin of Department of Health Services (DHS), and our local health department.

  • We are cleaning commonly used spaces routinely. This includes reception desks, waiting areas, and wash stations.
  • We are sanitizing restrooms more frequently and restocking supplies.
  • We are refilling hand sanitizer fixtures throughout clinics more frequently.
  • We are being vigilant in the sanitization and cleanliness of our clinics.
  • We are asking all patients that enter through our clinic doors if they have been traveling and/or sick.

For our patients:

  • To reduce the risk of exposurewe ask for patients to come alone for appointments unless a caregiver is required.
  • We ask that you reschedule your appointment if you or a family member are showing signs consistent with flu-like symptoms.
  • If you have traveled to countries listed on the CDC list, we are suggesting a voluntary 14-day quarantine and suggest not coming in for treatment during this time.
  • We recommend that our patients follow the CDC’s suggested hygiene practices.

With our staff:

  • We encourage our staff to closely monitor their health and well-being.
