im in central PA, and the police handle literally everything and the counselor talks to the person after the police verify they are alive or safe or whatever
afaik you aren't in any uniform, marked vehicle or wearing kevlar

No, now more than ever before welfare checks for mental health issues have been pushed from police to behavioral health. Some people at my agency have Narcan but I don’t carry it
Naw, no uniform or marked cars to protect people’s privacy. Don’t need snoopy neighbors knowing mental health workers are coming to someone’s house. And not allowed to carry any self-defense, not sure about Kevlar. And I don’t work a night shift anymore
