Refer a client
This form should be completed by the VRC making the referral. Please provide as much information as possible so that we can provide you with the best possible service. If you have multiple clients, please submit a separate form for each client.
Before you refer a client
Important: Due to a high number of first appointment no-shows, we kindly request that you confirm your client's willingness to participate in BHI services before making a referral. If a client misses their first scheduled appointment without providing a 24-hour notice, no further appointments will be scheduled, and a $220 no-show fee will be billed to the client. Thank you for your understanding.
Important: If your client poses an immediate threat to themselves or others (e.g., violent behavior, threats of violence, suicidal ideation), call 911 immediately. Inform them of the psychiatric emergency and request a Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) officer if available. Additionally, you may call, chat, or text the 9-8-8 national mental health crisis line for assistance with suicidal thoughts, mental health or substance use-related crises, or other emotional distress. Please note, we are unable to provide crisis intervention in an emergency.
