Way Station's Mobile Treatment Program provides services that are designed to meet the needs of individuals who are unable or unwilling to engage in traditional, facility-based outpatient psychiatric treatment and rehabilitation services. The goals of the Program include:

• Meeting the basic human needs of the individuals served;
• Preventing or reducing the incidents of hospitalization, homelessness, and incarceration;
• Improving the level of functioning, quality of life, and community integration of the individuals served; and
• Transitioning individuals to less intensive services.

Way Station's Mobile Treatment Program utilizes the principles and practices of the Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) model. Services are provided by a multi-disciplinary team comprised of a psychiatrist, nurse, social worker, and case managers. Team members work together and share responsibility for meeting the needs of the individuals served.

The following mobile treatment services are provided to individuals at a frequency, intensity, and duration that addresses the needs of each individual served:

• Psychiatric Evaluation and Assessment
• Medication Administration and Monitoring
• Medical Psychotherapy
• Interactive Therapies
• Skill Assessment and Training
• Health Promotion and Training
• Crisis Intervention
• Support, Linkage, and Advocacy
