Crisis Support Team

 

The Crisis Support Team is the access point for Youthdale’s inpatient programs: Acute Support Unit and Transitional Age Unit.

 
 

You can access the team by calling 416-363-9990, where we have trained professionals on the line 7 days a week to assess each young person’s risk, mental status, and needs through a telephone interview and intake process.


A psychiatrist is available to the Crisis Support Team to consult on young persons who are referred for in-patient services. Upon completion of the intake assessment, the Crisis Support Team presents each youth referred to a clinical team and decisions are made on accepting the young person for admission or referring to other services where these may be more suited to the youth’s needs.
