What Happens During the Immediate Psychiatric Assessment?

• Clinicians conduct a rapid and thorough evaluation upon arrival.
• The primary goal is to understand the immediate mental health condition.
• We identify key risk factors, such as self-harm or suicide risk.
• All safety concerns are assessed to create a secure environment.
• This assessment informs the initial stabilisation plan.

What is Crisis Stabilisation and Safety Planning?

• The immediate focus is to de-escalate the acute crisis.
• Treatment aims to reduce severe emotional distress quickly and effectively.
• We implement measures to ensure the absolute safety of the individual.
• Medication may be administered to manage severe, acute symptoms.
• A collaborative safety plan is developed to prevent harm and manage triggers.

What is Short-Term Therapeutic Support?

• Individual counselling and therapy sessions are provided.
• The focus is on helping the individual regain emotional control and stability.
• Therapists use evidence-based techniques proven for crisis management.
• Support is geared toward immediate problem-solving and developing coping skills.
• This therapeutic alliance helps bridge the transition to long-term care.

• Crisis intervention provides immediate and short-term care.
• The duration is typically brief, lasting only until the individual is medically and psychologically stabilised.
• Once stable, the person is referred to an appropriate ongoing treatment program.
• The objective is rapid stabilisation, not long-term residential treatment.

• Stabilisation of acute, distressing psychiatric symptoms.
• An established and clear plan for maintaining personal safety.
• Significant reduction in the immediate risk of self-harm or harm to others.
• A seamless and supported connection to long-term mental health care

After stabilisation, we ensure a smooth transition to a continuum of care tailored to the individual’s needs.

• Medication Management: For continued psychiatric oversight and adjustment of medications.
• Rehabilitation Programs: For comprehensive, long-term recovery and life skills development. ‍
• Inpatient Hospitalisation: If a more intensive level of care is required post-stabilisation.
