Then, the time really is now and the burning platform is clear. That means that, in any case, there’s ample time to get in touch with a mental health professional before a mental illness -be it a psychotic disorder, bipolar disorder or depression -becomes an emergency.

These three examples highlight what can be done differently with power. For example, cr is happening now and we can do far better to respond to it. Ambulance services go to the person directly to ensure immediate life saving care with emergency medical services in every area of the country urban, rural and frontier. In a few states and communities across the, solutions are in place. Until now we have not had the vision or will to approach cr care with national resolve and energy.
