- Critical Incidents:
(SET)= Support & Education Team. There are a number of people from various County agencies that have been trained to respond to requests for support after a traumatic incident occurs. When a SET response is put together, typically two Behavioral Health responders go out to the community to meet with the people affected by the event. The basics of a SET intervention are to provide support and community referrals for those needing more engagement with care.
