Our Home Treatment Teams offer crisis support at home to people with severe and enduring mental health problems who are experiencing serious mental distress.
They are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and provide emergency assessment, treatment and support.
The teams look at the needs of the person and offer extra help until he or she is able to cope more easily. Treatment involves counselling and monitoring of medication. Practical help is also offered as well as treatment.
Wherever possible, the teams try to prevent people from being admitted to an inpatient unit.
