Description

Behavioral health vehicles (BHV) initiative at children's health - the behavioral health vehicle (BHV) project at children's health will assist children in the north texas community experiencing a mental health crisis, enabling patients to be safely and quickly transported to inpatient and third-party intake facilities in the community. This initiative is in direct response to the delayed time to transfer pediatric psychiatric patients from children's medical center dallas to contracted inpatient behavioral health beds at other facilities, including perimeter behavioral hospital of dallas and haven behavioral hospital. The transfer of patients to inpatient facilities helps relieve emergency department (ED) boarding and ensures patients get access to timely, high-quality care in the most appropriate environment. Bhvs allow for transport without waiting for ambulance or parent availability, speeding up the time to transport once a patient is accepted at an inpatient facility.
