Although we all experience crisis or distress at times, a mental health emergency is something specific. A situation may be a mental health emergency if any of these things are true:
· A person is at immediate risk of harming him/ herself (Such as by making threats or taking action against his/ her life, or by taking life-threatening risks without concern for what might happen to them.)
· A person is at immediate risk of harming someone else (Such as by making threats or taking action against the life of another, by placing another at risk of serious harm, or by taking other risks without concern for what might happen to someone else.)
· A person is unable/ unwilling to take care of his or her basic needs (Such as bathing, eating regularly, keeping out of danger, etc.)
· A person shows a lack of understanding about his or her need for mental health treatment (Such as by doing things that are clearly inappropriate or dangerous.)
· And these actions or behaviors are the result of a mental illness, or can be reasonably thought to be the result of mental illness.
In a mental health emergency, you do not need to call the Access Center for prior authorization. The hospital staff will do that for you.
