Video Summary
In this video, Patrick discusses the composition of mobile crisis teams and the role of law enforcement. Mobile teams usually consist of two to three people, including a social worker and sometimes peer support. The presence of law enforcement is important for safety, but they generally respond separately from the team. In communities with dedicated officers trained in Crisis Intervention Team (CIT), collaboration between the team and police is effective. Patrick shares an example where a mobile crisis team and CIT-trained officers successfully handled a situation involving a person in distress, avoiding a potentially violent outcome. He suggests intentional peer support as valuable training for mobile crisis workers.
