Clinician; ASW, AMFT On call - Mobile Crisis Assessment

They made it easier for me to live, breathe, eat, and stay clean. Without them, I'd be waiting somewhere, waiting for someone to give me a chance to live...  - Client from Telecare

Do you want to be a part of bridging the gap? Help us continue to build a new, innovative program that is changing the way our community receives help while in an acute crisis.

• Telecare's behavioral health program is a 24/7, Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) serving individuals of all ages experiencing mental health crisis.
• MCRT is creating an opportunity for Clinicians, and Certified Peer Supports to intervene in a unique way that has never been done before in our system of care.
• This program collaborates and accepts referrals from County Access and Crisis Line (ACL) and law enforcement.
• MCRT will offer crisis triage and management, risk assessment, in-person intervention, and case management.
• Each team will respond to calls from the mobile crisis van to provide services directly in the field.

We are building a multi-cultural, multi-racial, multi-generational, and inclusive team to help those in need.

We will redefine the way we respond to our community members and their families when they are vulnerable and suffering from a mental health crisis and/or drug/alcohol use. Ready to make a difference?

The Clinician Unlicensed provides mental health support services to members served and their families at the program. The Clinician will provide crisis triage and management, risk assessment and also assists in the coordination of all mental health support services provided by the Team. This includes coordinating and collaborating with team members and outside agencies such as the Conservator's Office, Public Guardian's Office, Probation Department, County Behavioral Health Services, and housing and inpatient providers.
