[QUOTE="Denise2017, post: 755751, member: 21870"] Dear Deni, Thank you so much for the excellent add very succinct and practical advice. I am learning how to use the quote system here and I have left a small part of your quote above so other people can see the resource. A cousin who is a social worker sent me this very good-seeming resource today, and although my daughter rejected it, it may help someone else. This is for Long Island. This is a mobile crisis network that will come to the person in need and also provides follow-up. [URL]https://www.nassaucountyny.gov/1700/Crisis-Hotline-Services[/URL]— The Team comes to you! The Mobile Crisis team consists of licensed professional social workers and nurses who are specially trained to help individuals, and their families, with mental health problems. If you or a family member is experiencing a mental health crisis call the Team. Social workers and nurses travel to homes, schools, work-sites and other locations in Nassau County. The Team responds in the same day and provides supportive crisis intervention for children and adults who are experiencing an emotional disturbance, interpersonal crisis or psychiatric emergency. Calling the Team is an alternative to calling the police or driving to a psychiatric emergency room when an individual is in crisis. Team members assess individuals in their environment and evaluate their psychological condition. The Team will make a referral to the most appropriate program, resource or facility to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the individual. In addition, the Team will follow up on all referrals to ensure that they took place, and to assist with any barriers or obstacles to getting treatment. ..... There may be similar services for other places. My daughter says she knows about it and is afraid they will out her in a group home, where in my opinion, she probably would be able to get the services she needs. I agree with your assessment. Thank you for you practical and clear reply. For now I will work with my therapist, my family and lawyer to protect myself while helping her as much as we are able. It's a "put your own oxygen mask on first situation at this point". This community is an amazing, supportive help. I have recommended to others. Thank you so much Deni. I wish you strength, calm, peace and happiness. [/QUOTE]
