Psychiatric Mobile Response Teams
- Teams composed of mental health workers (psychiatrists, RN's, MSW's, psychologists, psychiatric technicians) who will intervene in situations where an individual's mental or emotional condition results in behavior which constitutes an imminent danger to him or herself or to another and is unwilling to seek voluntary treatment. These teams are generally operated by county mental health agencies and have the authority to issue an order authorizing involuntary inpatient hospitalization for up to 72 hours.
