Description

A Crisis House is a service that offers short-term residential mental health crisis
interventions and support for a duration of up to 7 days, for individuals who are experiencing
mental health crisis. Analysis of local NHS Mental Health inpatient admissions evidences a
cohort of inpatients whose needs could be met in a Crisis House as an alternative to
inpatient admission which will offer significant benefits to service users. Crisis Houses can
prevent possible hospital admission and ensure only those who are acutely unwell or at very
high risk of suicide are admitted to hospital. Crisis Houses are embedded within a number of
ICSs, with a number of positive outcomes including high service user satisfaction and
decreased reliance upon acute inpatient admission. Underpinning the philosophy of Crisis
House provision is social inclusion and linking with the wider VCSE service provision.
