Crisis Services
Hospital Diversion
Available for Suffolk County residents, 18 years and older with a primary diagnosis of severe and persistent mental illness at high risk for psychiatric hospitalization, high emergency department (ED) use for psychiatric crisis not resulting in admission, and those individuals “stepping down” from an acute hospitalization, but in need of additional clinical and support services oversight to continue their success towards their recovery, upon returning to their permanent housing environments.
The individual’s length of stay in the program is anticipated to be 7-14 days, and not to exceed 28 days. We will clinically assess, monitor, and help develop support plans and relapse prevention plans with the individuals being served, and in collaboration with their community based outpatient providers, so as to move towards reducing the number of overall ED visits and psychiatric hospitalizations.
Sunrise Crisis Residence Program
Sunrise Crisis Residence is a home like setting where up to six individuals experiencing mental health, emotional, situational, and/or adventitious crises can receive essential support services. Individuals have access to the 24-hour team of staff which includes Community Support Specialists, Peer Support Specialists and a Certified Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC).
Sunrise Crisis Residence is a short term residential crisis program for individuals who are experiencing a mental health crisis and/or are experiencing challenges in daily life that create risk for an escalation of symptoms that cannot be managed in the individual’s home and community environment, without onsite supports. This program is designed to stabilize and transition individuals back into the community. The program is appropriate for those experiencing a period of acute stress significantly impairing their capacity to cope with typical circumstances.
Mobile Residential Support Team
Mobile Residential Support Teams (MRST) provides added support services for high-risk individuals residing in Supportive Housing and Apartment Treatment Programs (ATP) throughout Nassau County. Our goal is to assist residents with maintaining their housing and successfully living an independent lifestyle.
Mobile Residential Support Teams are deployed to an individual’s home or any community setting where support is needed. Their primary role is to provide immediate intervention and connect individuals to appropriate crisis and behavioral health services. By delivering timely care and support, these teams aim to minimize unnecessary involvement of law enforcement, emergency room visits, and hospitalization.
