ICT-1

ICT (Integrated Care Team)

ICT is a multidisciplinary, co-responder program aimed at providing resources to those in the community experiencing mental health crisis. The ICT-1 team is a collaborative effort between Sedgwick County and the City of Wichita and is comprised of a Qualified Mental Health Professional, a Law Enforcement Officer, and a Paramedic. They respond to emergent mental health crisis in the community, identified through the 9-1-1 system and the COMCARE Crisis system. Other integrated care teams consist of a combination of Qualified Mental Health Professionals, Law Enforcement Officers and Integrated Care Specialists.

By integrating mental health, medicine, and law enforcement into a cooperative team, ICT-1 is uniquely suited to creatively identify and deliver the most appropriate resource that vulnerable populations need in their most fragile of moments. The team responds to patients who are experiencing suicidality, substance use issues, psychosis and delusions, and many other mental health issues that are emergent enough that cannot wait for other resources. Participating agencies in the ICT program are: COMCARE and EMS from Sedgwick County and Wichita Police Department and Wichita Fire Department from the City of Wichita.
