Cooper Green Mercy Health

Located at 1509 6th Avenue South in Birmingham, Alabama, Cooper Green Mercy Health offers urgent mental health support and crisis intervention services to adults in need of immediate assistance. While the facility does not maintain a long-term outpatient therapy program, it provides urgent psychiatric evaluations and walk-in support for individuals experiencing high-risk mental health crises. Especially for those facing suicidal ideation or thoughts of self-harm, Cooper Green serves as an accessible, safety-first point of care.

In addition to its in-person response services, Cooper Green complements community-based resources such as the national suicide prevention hotline (dial 988) and collaborates with local agencies like UAB Community Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic for follow-up care. Patients in crisis are encouraged to visit their nearest emergency room or contact a mental health provider directly if one is already in place. By offering immediate access to assessments and guidance, Cooper Green functions as a vital component of Birmingham’s broader mental health safety net.
