Brightside Health has announced the launch of Crisis Care, a telehealth program treating individuals with elevated suicide risk.
Crisis Care is available to patients who are actively suicidal and/or have had a recent suicide attempt, as well as those in need of follow-up care after hospitalization.
As per the report, the high-touch, tech-enabled (4-12 week) program is staffed by a select group of Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) trained clinicians and includes 1:1 weekly video sessions, online check-ins, anytime messaging, and 24/7 call support. It also employs a structured, collaborative approach with documented in-session assessments, treatment planning, and safety plans.
Based on the clinically-proven CAMS framework, Brightside Health’s Crisis Care also ensures safety and efficacy through the use of research-backed clinical protocols, rigorous oversight, and care coordination if the patient requires a higher level of treatment or is ready to step down to routine services.
Crisis Care is available effective immediately in select states in the US, with a full national rollout coming soon.
