Police and Crisis Team
The Police and Crisis Team (PACT) is a collaborative partnership between the Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) and Alberta Health Services (AHS), Mental Health and Addictions.
LPS officers and trained AHS health professionals are paired together to:
- Attend and diffuse crisis situations for individuals experiencing addictions and/or mental health issues
- Liaise with Chinook Regional Hospital to advocate for possible admissions
- Provide consultation with various community agencies, AHS services and police members for complex case planning and management
- Connect or reconnect individuals to new or pre-existing services related to mental health or addictions
- Connect individuals to various housing and financial services, when needed
- Provide short term monitoring until individuals can be connected with the appropriate community-based resources
PACT aims to create positive outcomes for individuals and families struggling with addictions and/or mental illnesses.
