Abstract
Recent years have seen a substantial increase in the use of crisis
resolution home treatment (CRHT) teams as an alternative to psychiatric in-patient
admission. We discuss the functions of these services and their effectiveness. Our
research suggests high rates of suicide in patients under CRHT. Specific strategies
need to be developed to improve patient safety in this setting.
