About Crownpoint Health Care Facility

Crownpoint Health Care Facility - New Mexico

Crownpoint Health Care Facility sits right in the heart of Crownpoint, New Mexico, and is one of those places where everything you need for your health is basically in one place. It's an Indian Health Service facility tucked along Highway Junction 371/9. They serve Native American and Alaska Native individuals, especially those in Navajo Nation communities. What stands out first is how they blend medical care with behavioral health, so if someone is dealing with addiction or mental health struggles, they don’t have to bounce around to different clinics.
A Peaceful Setting with Lots of Access
Crownpoint is surrounded by these huge desert mesas and wide open views that honestly make reflection feel easier. They’re not far from Chaco Culture National Historical Park, so the community has this rich and grounded feel.
The outpatient behavioral health team offers substance use assessments, counseling, crisis support and recovery planning. You also get access to dental, primary care, pharmacy and lab work, making getting the comprehensive care you need easy and convenient. Services are covered for eligible Native individuals through IHS, which helps to remove a big financial barrier.
A Culturally Rooted Approach That Feels Different
Something that really sets Crownpoint apart is how much they lean into cultural respect and traditional practices. If you’re someone who feels more grounded when your care reflects your identity or your community’s values, this place seems to understand that deeply. They integrate Navajo cultural traditions and healing practices into treatment.
As well, the space itself reflects Navajo culture, with calming artwork and an environment that feels connected to the land. They also focus a lot on families and youth by doing prevention work in schools and the community, which I think just goes to show how invested they are in the health and well being of the people they serve.
