Crisis Response (Midlothian)

If you have mental health difficulties and are experiencing a non-medical crisis, the Crisis Response Service can arrange for an experienced member of the team to meet with you.

They will assist you in any appropriate way to resolve what is causing you concern. If needed, our team member can liaise with other agencies such as Housing, Emergency Social Work Service, the Intensive Home Treatment Team and other emergency services. If it’s appropriate, we can also arrange for you to receive face-to-face support.
