Admissions accepts calls from families, hospitals & referring professionals

Speaking to the Professional

You Are Judged on Where You Send People. We Take That Seriously.

When a case manager, discharge planner, or probation officer makes a referral, their own credibility rides on it. You need to know the patient will be received properly, treated well, and not bounced back to you in a week. Step One understands that a referral is a professional trust, not just an admission.

Step One has expanded its referral network across Arizona and welcomes referrals from hospitals, detox providers, behavioral health organizations, EAPs, case managers, community partners, and the court and probation system. Our admissions team works closely with referring professionals to coordinate timely, seamless admissions for adult men who need residential behavioral health care.

How the Referral Process Works

A Direct Line and a Clear Process

The admissions and referral team coordinates directly with referring professionals to assess fit, confirm what the patient needs, and manage the transition into care. The aim is to make the handoff clean, so your patient does not fall through the gap between your setting and ours.

For questions about bed availability, fit, or what to send over, the admissions and referral coordinator is your direct contact.
