If someone needs help urgently
Lintern Care is not an emergency service. If someone is in danger or their life is at risk, call 999. For an urgent mental health crisis, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option.
Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust explains the 111 mental health option: Need help urgently (EPUT). To report a concern about an adult at risk of abuse or neglect, contact Essex County Council.
What happens after you get in touch
Nothing is agreed until the person is happy with the plan.
01
We reply
We reply by phone or email to arrange a first conversation.
02
We talk it through
We ask about the person, what a good week looks like for them, where they live and what support is in place now. We tell you honestly whether we are likely to be the right service, including whether we can staff support in that area.
03
We meet
If it looks like a good fit, we meet the person and anyone they want involved. With their agreement, we read any assessment or support plan through a secure route we agree with you.
04
We give a clear answer
We say whether we can offer support, what it would look like and when it could start. If we cannot, we say so and suggest where else to look.
