Family Is First

Quality Time & the Importance of Special Occasions

One of the elements that makes SafePassage Global attuned to your needs is that we put families first. Crises don’t arise between 9 to 5 and although we adapt to time and place based on need, we encourage parents to give thoughtful consideration to the timing of every transport. Most transports can be planned, however many families need immediate response but transporting an emotionally fragile teenager on Christmas Day is not a good option just because you know they will be home because the emotional devastation surrounding parent manipulation and trickery embeds a memory of associating Christmas with transport to treatment that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. The same goes for birthdays, high school graduation and vacations.

SafePassage Global wants to be certain there are no special emotional ties to the date that has been selected for transport prior to engaging service. Additionally, our Teams have families and as such many common holidays are family time for them as well. We ask that as the holidays approach you plan ahead.

When you have identified a program lets talk so that when bed space becomes available your plan for transport is in place.

Everyone at SafePassage Global encourages the families we serve to carve out time in our schedules for quality quality family time even in the midst of crisis.

SafePassage respects the Parents or Guardians right to choose the date of transport and further respects the mental health community treatment center’s right to schedule admission on which ever day they believe is best. But in the big picture we advocate for the child, youth or adult in crisis to coordinate with all parties: program staff, educaitonal consultants, clinicians, therapists and other referring professionals to schedule what is in their best interest.
