Behavioral Health Crisis Services
Crisis Services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days each year to provide a variety of supports and interventions to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. What constitutes a mental health crisis varies from one person to the next, so each contact with Crisis Services is handled according to the specific needs of the individual. Support can be provided to the individual experiencing distress, or to the loved ones of a person in distress. Examples of a mental health crisis could include experiencing overwhelming depression, thoughts of suicide, feeling out of control, having disturbing thoughts, difficulty thinking clearly, or thoughts of harming others. Crisis Services staff provide brief intervention, support, guidance and linkage to mental health services, all with the goal of assisting the individual to lessen the crisis.
