The Role You Play
As a Mobile Crisis Case Manager, youll be responsible for providing
community-based mobile crisis care. This will allow you to provide
crisis interventions to individuals in a more familiar and comfortable
environment, and one that is less restrictive. Youll also be
collaborating with hospitals, medical and behavioral health providers,
law enforcement, and other social services. Work is always done in a
two-person team, so youll always have backup if necessary - however the
Case Manager is the lead on scene.
- *The Day-to-Day*
1. Respond to clients in crisis where they are (home, work, park,
other community locations, etc.) services will not be restricted
to certain locations or times of day.
- This will require the ability to drive to community
settings, and navigate in areas which may not be easily
accessible as the client needs.
2. Triage and screen for suicidality, de-escalate and present
resolutions, coordinate with medical/behavioral health services,
and create a crisis plan and follow up.
3. Follow up with clients you served to determine if their referred
services are being provided in a timely manner and meeting their
unique needs.
4. Actively engage with the client in crisis planning, creating a
range of tools and techniques they can use in their safety plan.
- *Other Duties as Assigned*
1. Meet clinical and ethical documentation standards.
2. Complete additional and continuing trainings in the field of
crisis resolution.
