Behavioral Health Crisis Support Team Clinician
2 months ago
The Johns Hopkins University strives to ensure a safe and supportive environment for all who live, work, or visit our campuses. To meet the evolving standards of collaborative mental health crisis response services, Johns Hopkins University (JHU) has launched a Behavioral Health Crisis Support Team (BHCST), staffed by licensed mental health clinicians and specially trained Johns Hopkins Public Safety officers. While the BHCST responds to calls for service regardless of affiliation, most BHCST clients are JHU students and learners.
The JHU BHCST is seeking a Behavioral Health Crisis Support Team Clinician (Casual/PRN) to join the team to provide shift coverage for staff leave, extended absences, university closures, and as needed to maintain 24/7 operations. In general, this position offers pickup of 7.5-12-hour shifts that could include weekdays, evenings, weekends, holidays, and overnight on-call.
The BHCST clinical team is part of the Mental Health Services organization within the division of Student Health and Well-Being (SHWB). SHWB provides primary care, mental health, and health education and promotion services to JHU students and learners across the University's nine schools.
BHCST clinicians co-respond with Johns Hopkins Public Safety (JHPS) officers 24/7/365 to individuals experiencing behavioral health crises. Modeled after successful efforts in major cities, the JHU BHCST is one of the first mobile crisis co-responder programs in a university setting in the United States, and the first to launch a 24/7/365 service model. The BHCST clinical team staffs the Access Line, which provides telephone support for individuals in crisis as well as consultation support for faculty and staff. Clinicians triage phone calls and provide mobile crisis co-response with JHPS officers to calls for service within the Homewood, Mt. Vernon, and East Baltimore campus footprints and in select off-campus residential locations. In general, JHPS transports clinicians to clients in crisis.
The team operates on a 12-hour shift model, with coverage rotating between all staff to cover weekends, holidays, and evenings. On-site coverage shifts cover the hours of 9:30am – 2:00am, with overnight on-call shifts covering the access line. Clinicians are required to respond to campus within 30 minutes for overnight calls that necessitate an in-person mobile crisis response.
