The North London NHS Foundation Trust (NLFT, a merger of BEH and CANDI) mental health crisis teams help people whose mental health might be deteriorating to the level that hospital admission is being considered.

Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment Teams are based in the community and provide a safe and effective, home-based assessment and treatment service as an alternative to inpatient care.

The service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
