I am OK at the moment, but I’m putting together a “safety plan” if I am suicidal, and who I can get support from at differing levels of distress. Can someone tell me why someone would call the CATT team rather than 000? What does the CATT team do?
the CATT team talks to u over the phone doing a quick assessment wether you need to be hospitalised, and may offer other suggestions or hopsital programs depdning on ur eligibility
I've never called 000 but hvae called the CATT team a few times
They linked me in to short accomodation, to a case manager, and to hospital support programs.
The person who answers is specificially trained in MH to deal with criseses.
