West Central has developed a new innovative program that will provide Mobile Crisis Outreach to individuals 24 hours a day/7 days a week! The primary goal with this program is to assist individuals with a mental illness before they end up in a significant crisis and require hospitalization.
The Mobile Crisis Team works closely with other Community Mental Health Centers, area Police Departments, and other community-based delivery systems. This will all occur within a two-person team. As a part of this team you will rapidly evaluate complex behavioral health situations; develop, recommend and support clinically appropriate crisis interventions to be implemented with individual clients, their families, and a wide variety of community helpers, including law enforcement and EMS personnel.
To do this, we need passionate and dedicated Master-Level Clinicians. We will consider candidates with Master's Degrees in Progress (Clinicians) if they have relevant experience in mobile crisis/mental health and are in school for the appropriate degree. For the therapists who already have a full time job, but believe in our mission, there are also first, second and third shifts available.
Responsibilities.
- Rapid responses to all phone calls and face-to-face crisis intervention requests.
- Consult, triage, or actively participate in facilitating appropriate Voluntary Inpatient Hospital Admissions, Partial Hospital Program referrals, Conditional Discharge Revocations, and Involuntary Emergency Admissions.
