2 Upstream Crisis Intervention Innovative way to reduce ER transports through alternate pathways; nurse advice, and alternate destinations. How Grady EMS implemented a community paramedic program for patients with mental illness and/or substance abuse conditions.
3 Learning objectives for this presentation: Opportunities to reduce the use of ALS ambulances in the response and transport to requests Alternate pathways for patients, an alternative to the traditional ER transport destination. Alternative to the traditional reactionary EMS response, community based home visits before the call. Develop relationships with agencies and facilities to enhance patient outcomes. Patient case reviews to determine root-cause dependency on and promote reliance on more appropriate resources.

6 Grady EMS Atlanta, Ga. In 2013, Grady EMS encountered 7,900 psychiatric related calls based on the paramedic s Provider Impression of Anxiety, Behavioral Disorder, Depression, and Psychiatric Emergency. In 2013, 6,410 (5.9%) calls triaged through NAEMD category 25 (psychiatric / suicide attempt). Ninety (90) percent of psychiatric patients encountered by Grady EMS and transported to GHS did not require admission Expense ER-the ED average loss per patient was -$401 EMS average loss per ambulance transport was- $109.
7 Grady Health System Fifty (50) percent of psychiatric patients registered at Grady s ED were ultimately discharged with a referral and/or appointment for outpatient care. The Grady EMS Crisis Unit program was designed to move this discharge disposition upstream.

10 Crisis and Access Management Services
11 Georgia Crisis and Access Line (GCAL) GCAL currently serves as a crisis call center for the entire state of Georgia. All calls are answered by a licensed mental health professional to provide crisis intervention services and linkage to an appropriate service provider based on the level of acuity. GCAL provides crisis intervention services via the call center 24/7/365 to individuals seeking assistance with behavioral health related crisis. Since 2003, the call center has received over 259 million calls. In 2013, GCAL answered 200,000 calls, about 800 per day.
12 Mobile Crisis Response Services (MCRS) The BHL MCRS teams currently serve Regions 3 and 5. This covers an expanded metro Atlanta area as well as the southeastern quarter of the state, including the Savannah, Dublin, Brunswick, and Waycross areas. Other MCRS exist in other areas of the state. The MCRS team provides mobile crisis services in the community 24/7/365 through a team consisting of a licensed mental health clinician and a non-licensed mental health paraprofessional. MCRS team members are strategically placed throughout coverage area to ensure that individuals are seen within a timely manner. Region 3 average response time February 2014: 46 minutes.
13 Mobile Crisis Response Services (MCRS) Interventions include de-escalation, crisis evaluation, and appropriate service linkage. Linkages may include appointments, referral to community services, or hospitalization as a last resort. Goals include an overall decrease in the number of hospitalizations and presentations to emergency departments. In Region 3, 60% of individuals are diverted from ER and hospitalization. Of those hospitalized, many are referred directly to mental health facilities and bypass the ER.
14 Officer forms and law enforcement Grady EMS met with an Atlanta Police Department (APD) Deputy Chief and other senior leaders at the Zone levels Grady EMS adopted language from the APD policy so both agencies would have a common understanding, terminology, and defined process Grady EMS and APD reviewed the policy with all staff Grady EMS provides copies of 1013 and Officer forms
