Lake County is developing a Transportation Plan to support a Centralized Receiving System for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises. This plan will outline how transportation will be provided to and between facilities, considering options like law enforcement, medical services, contracted providers, or family. The goal is to ensure efficient and humane transportation for crisis intervention and care, allowing for immediate access to emergency services. This initiative is currently under review as part of the county's comprehensive plan. The project will involve establishing transportation protocols and potentially contracting with service providers. Businesses that offer transportation services, particularly non-emergency medical transport, could find opportunities. Reaching out early to understand the county's needs and the plan's specifics before formal bidding processes begin could be advantageous.
