Opportunities to improve behavioral health crisis response
Results of a large urban county's community status assessment
Datos Bibliográficos
A comprehensive community status assessment of an Ohio urban county's crisis response (CR) system explored the experiences of its behavioral health services' clients and providers to surface themes characterizing the system's responsiveness and identifying opportunities for improvements. Forty‐eight focus groups and two online surveys were conducted. Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis and descriptive statistics. The greatest areas of needed improvement ascertained by this effort are in increased CR system resources, more efficient use of resources, and capacity enhancements in nine areas: the mobile crisis team, CR protocols, psychiatric inpatient and crisis stabilization beds, stabilization admission for eligible persons, stabilization services for in‐crisis but admission‐ineligible persons, continuity of care, research into child versus adult CR systems, Provider Emergency Support Program, and first responder crisis intervention training. The assessment provides a foundation for the county to identify further opportunities for system scale‐up
