Our practitioners provide a safe and healthy environment for patients along with continual assessment of their condition and risks.
The service is operational 24/7 ensuring that patients in mental health crisis receive the appropriate level of care and support while their mental health assessments are completed.

We would like to again thank everyone who helped us achieve this, our Mental Health Crisis Intervention Service which is ran in partnership with Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust, is a key service within the Right Care Right Person Project.
‘’I was delighted to be invited by the trust to attend this awards event to represent Humbercare’s involvement in the delivery of the Right Care Right Person initiative in Hull, it was a fantastic event, the host Matt Lucas announcing these were the largest healthcare awards in the world! An element of the initiative is the delivery of the Humbercare partnership Mental Health Crisis Intervention Service within Miranda House, this amongst other initiatives across the Humber Mental Health Service found us being shortlisted to 1 of 9 finalists. Although we didn’t win the main award, to be given a High Commendation Award, essentially the runner up, is such an amazing achievement, I felt so proud of the staff team, the work Humbercare does and the effective partnerships we have built and maintained. A huge well done and thank you to everyone that has been involved in the design and delivery of this service and the partnership, outcomes evidence it is positively impacting the resources of the police, emergency departments, mental health services and also the individuals in crisis; ensuring people are receiving the right care and support by the right people at the right time.’’ – Kelly Allman, Head of Services
