Home-like alternatives to psych. ERs and inpatient units
People USA’s Rose Houses are short-term crisis respites that are home-like alternatives to hospital psychiatric ERs and inpatient units. They are 100% operated by peers who have their own personal lived experiences with behavioral health challenges, crisis, and moving forward towards wellness. Our highly trained and skilled staff ensure that people feel engaged, safe, comfortable, understood, and hopeful about their next steps.
Rose Houses are open and immediately accessible 24/7/365 for hospital diversion. The service is 100% voluntary. Guests can stay up to five nights, and they can come-and-go for appointments, jobs, and other essential needs.
