Mobile Crisis Units
Mobile Crisis Units are specialized teams of mental health professionals that provide urgent, on-the-spot support to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. They are typically dispatched to assess and assist people facing emergencies such as severe anxiety, psychosis, or suicidal thoughts, often in their community or home setting. These teams aim to de-escalate the situation, connect individuals with appropriate resources, and prevent unnecessary hospitalizations. Mobile Crisis Units operate quickly and compassionately, ensuring immediate care while respecting the dignity and safety of those in distress.
