Dufferin Mobile Crisis Response Team
OPP Provincial Constable James Giovannetti discusses the Dufferin Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) on 10-5 The Official Podcast of the OPP Association. When MCRT deals with a mental health call, the patient is transported to hospital less than 7% of the time. If the team does take a patient to hospital, the process is streamlined quickly, freeing up the police officer and nurse team to be available for other calls. The nurses working on the team are able to get the patients into the mental health system efficiently, which takes workload off Emergency Room nurses. In 2023, through the partnership of the MCRT with the local hospital, wait times in the ER have been reduced, despite the number of calls for mental heath rising.

About Time
As a member who is within 5 years of retirement, I find these podcasts very informative because you’re not eligible to attend a retirement seminar early enough to really plan properly. Please continue to provide this valuable information to our membership, it is extremely important to plan early.
Very entertaining!
As someone who will be applying to the OPP this year, I’ve been finding these podcast very useful in keeping the public and current members informed of what’s going on within the organization.
I suggest adding an episode which brings a recently hired officer to discuss some of the benefits and challenges they face when doing front line duties for the first time.
