According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 1 in 5 U.S. adults
recently experienced a mental illness. But now, finally, people in need
have a lifeline.

On July 16th, 988, the new three-digit dialing code routing callers to
the Mental Health Crisis Lifeline, launches nationally. States must
comply with federal law and develop a plan and infrastructure to support
their communities' adoption of 988 services. Bamboo Health is here to
be the partner state government leaders need in supporting that plan and
providing the necessary infrastructure, along with sharing expert
guidance around securing federal funding.

Bamboo Health's Crisis Management Playbook can help you learn more
about 988 and how you can provide your state's communities with
effective crisis management to improve public health.

Developing a comprehensive behavioral health crisis management system is
essential to closing the gaps in care your state residents are currently
facing. When you partner with Bamboo health and use our Crisis
Management System, you'll find incredible benefits such as:

* Real-time situational awareness, connecting all crisis stakeholders

* A direct link between crisis call center professionals and mobile
crisis response teams

* Reduced administrative burden around manually coordinating and
searching for beds

* Tracking of response steps and time stamps from intake to final
disposition

Request a demo today and see how Bamboo Health can offer ongoing support
across your entire 988 ecosystem.
