The July 2022 launch of the 9-8-8 three-digit suicide prevention hotline in the United States signified a major step forward emergency mental health care. But more needs to be done to address psychological crises, and in some instances, is being done today.
These and related mental health topics were discussed in depth during the July 23, 2022 webinar “Working Together: How 988, Crisis Response, and EMS Can Improve Community Care,” available to view at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBk1N9pBGvY
The webinar was hosted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Office of EMS in collaboration with the Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). It examined opportunities for collaboration between the recently launched National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (9-8-8), crisis response, and EMS communities.
