[Allina Health Newsroom, August 12, 2024]
Guided by Allina Health leadership and fueled by generous philanthropic support, a new era of care is underway at the Center for Mental Health & Addiction at Mercy Hospital – Unity Campus in Fridley.
“It’s been a place that we dreamed about,” said Mary Beth Lardizabal, DO, vice president of Allina Health Mental Health & Addiction. “All our services are in one place, on one campus.”
Dr. Lardizabal says the new facility will help up to 300 people a day with mental health and addiction care needs, including seniors, adults, teens and children in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. The center also includes space for community partners, such as Canvas Health Services, the Southern Anoka Community Assistance Food Shelf and Minnesota Recovery Connection.
