The policy of the Londonderry Police Department in responding to Involuntary Emergency Admissions is to de-escalate violent situations; to prevent police officer's injury in violent incidents; to reduce repeat calls; to assist mentally ill persons; to refer mentally ill persons to the proper facilities and physician, to provide emergency care or assistance to a mentally ill person, including transportation to medical facilities; and if necessary to take into custody on an involuntary basis a mentally ill person for the safety of the person and/or the community.
