a good alternative for mental health services available for people in remote areas, allowing access to crisis intervention
Pros: the quality of education and training we received
Cons: underuse of service by potential clients who could have greatly benefited from this service!
My job consisted of being on call for mobile crisis calls...for mental health emergencies in the community of Wawa. Unfortunately the service was under utilized.
Pay was limited unless we got a call out, then it was a reasonable amount.
What I enjoyed most was the quality of training available to us! Our team consisted of persons qualified in my areas
– more... of expertise in social and health services! – less
