ACCESS TO SERVICES
Access to services can be accomplished as follows:
Emergency or Crisis Access - for anyone who believes they have a need.
call (360) 385-0321 and identify the need as emergent or urgent, or come to the agency during office hours, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday, and identify the need as emergent or urgent.
Routine Services Call (360) 385-0321 to discuss your needs with a screener, and arrange an evaluation.
In-patient Treatment Access
In-patient psychiatric service requests for individuals who have (or may be eligible by reason of a hospitalization for) Medicaid coverage must be pre-authorized. JMHS is the PRSN East Jefferson County authorizing agent for all medicaid inpatient services. Contact (360) 385-0321 and ask for the On-Call CDMHP. An evaluation will take place and the need for hospitalization will be reviewed; all lesser restrictive or intrusive treatments will be identified and pursued.
There are no currently available slots for this school year. This program is available by referral through the Special Education services of the child's School District.
