Sunrise Canyon is the first and only facility of its kind in Texas.

The Perry School of Nursing's Combest Center officially opened its newest clinical site at the Lubbock Regional Mental Health Mental Retardation Center Sunrise Canyon, 1950 Aspen Ave.

Sunrise Canyon Hospital is a psychiatric facility for short-term crisis stabilization. The newly-renovated, 30-bed hospital is an adult inpatient treatment facility that provides psychiatric evaluation, rehabilitation services and comprehensive discharge planning for people with mental illness and/or a serious psychiatric crisis.

The new facility is the only community-based hospital of its kind in Texas, operated by and integrated within the other programs of a community mental health center.
