High acuity
A term used to describe mental health needs that are severe or complex, requiring specialized or intensive treatment. Examples include suicidal ideation, psychosis, or substance use disorder.
Supporting individuals with high-acuity mental health needs often requires ongoing assessment and personalized treatment planning. Approaches such as measurement-based care help clinicians track progress and adjust care when needed, while a continuum of care ensures individuals can access the appropriate level of support as their needs change over time.
