Abstract
The rise to prominence of the crisis resolution team (CRT) has been one of the most conspicuous recent changes in the English mental health care system. The national mental health service mapping undertaken at the Centre for Public Mental Health in Durham indicates that, in March 2004, at least one CRT was operating in 72% of England's Primary Care Trust catchment areas, compared with 40% in March 2003. The current rapid dissemination of this model follows the NHS Plan's requirement that CRTs should be introduced throughout England. The main aim of CRTs is to reduce the need for acute psychiatric beds.
