Summary

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a safe, comfortable alternative to hospital stays for people with acute mental health conditions.

- This is a very small pilot study (41 people) and only looks at eligibility and retention, not whether home care is as effective as hospital care. It may not work for everyone.
