These specialised short-term residences, known as Crisis Prevention Houses, offer crucial support to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis within the Barnet, Enfield, and Haringey areas. As part of the North London Mental Health Partnership, our service specifically includes a dedicated Crisis Prevention House in Barnet, designed to provide a safe and therapeutic environment for those who feel they would benefit from a temporary stay to help manage their crisis.
If you're currently receiving mental health care, perhaps from a Community Team or Crisis Team, and believe a stay at the Barnet Crisis Prevention House could assist you, there are two ways to explore this option. You can directly contact our dedicated self-referral line on 020 8702 4515. This line is available from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, seven days a week, and a member of our team will be able to discuss your eligibility for the Crisis Prevention House in Barnet. Alternatively, you can speak with your local mental health key worker, who can make a referral to the Crisis Prevention House Team on your behalf, connecting you with the North London Mental Health Partnership's comprehensive support network.
It's important to note that access to these crisis prevention houses is primarily facilitated through referrals from the Crisis Resolution Home Treatment Team. This ensures that individuals receive the most appropriate and coordinated care from the North London Mental Health Partnership. We are committed to providing continuous support, with our Crisis Prevention Houses operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every single week of the year.
