Crisis Intervention

Crisis Intervention services are provided immediately upon contact to individuals
experiencing a major life crisis and/or a rapid decrease in
functioning. Individuals are evaluated by clinical staff to determine whether crisis
counseling or a referral for psychiatric hospitalization is required.
After-hour crisis intervention services may also be accessed by calling
217/773-3977, 217/357-3176 or 217/285-6111.
The agency has implemented a pager system in which
nursing and QMHP/clinical staff rotate on a weekly basis to
respond to any pages received from the hotlines.
