Mental Health Care in Nebraska

Access gap in Nebraska: Nebraska has 88 of its 93 counties designated as mental health professional shortage areas by HRSA — among the highest proportions in the nation. Outside Omaha and Lincoln, psychiatric care is almost entirely inaccessible without traveling long distances or using telehealth.

Hometown NP bridges this gap by providing fully licensed, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners who can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medications via telehealth — legally, safely, and conveniently — to residents throughout Nebraska.

Whether you are in Omaha, a rural community, or anywhere in between, you can access board-certified psychiatric care from the comfort of home — via secure, HIPAA-compliant video. Check the scheduling portal for current appointment availability; most major insurance plans are accepted.
