About Mobile Response Teams (MRTs)

The MRT program is designed to respond to those experiencing crisis at your locations within Baker, Bradford, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Lafayette, Levy, Suwannee, and Union counties, who are in need of 24/7 crisis intervention services. The program’s goals are to lessen the trauma of crisis situations, particularly, diverting individuals away from ER’s and/or jail, and stabilizing them in the most conducive setting possible. During the initial crisis phase, a master’s level counselor responds at the crisis location 24/7 (or through Telehealth as requested), while a care coordinator establishes links to appropriate community resources, and a peer specialist regularly follows-up.

Mobile Response Teams Aim to…

  • Respond on-site within 60 minutes of a crisis notification
  • Follow-up next day with tailored behavioral health crisis-oriented care plans
  • Provide screening, standardized assessments, and referral services
  • Create safety plans to prevent future crises
  • Include family members in decision-making & support process
  • Ensure linkage between all continuum of care services; i.e., psychiatry, outpatient, and referral agencies
  • Promote use of innovative technologies; i.e.,Telehealth.
