A Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) is a specialized facility designed to provide immediate support and care for individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. These units offer a safe environment where individuals can receive assessment, stabilization, and treatment, often without the need for hospitalization. The goal is to help individuals regain stability and connect them with ongoing mental health services. CSUs typically operate with a team of mental health professionals, including psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers. They focus on de-escalating crises, providing therapy, and developing personalized care plans. By addressing mental health emergencies promptly, CSUs aim to reduce the need for more intensive interventions and promote recovery.
