Person with schizophrenia requests transport to facility


Staff discuss a person with schizophrenia who asked behavioral health for transport to a mental health facility. The person was taken to an emergency psychiatric facility the day before. Behavioral health said they are not the person’s provider and would only accept him if police brought him, and police said they do not usually provide that transport.
