Crisis Resolution Teams (CRT) for rapid assessment and short-term treatment of mental health problems have increasingly been implemented internationally over the last decades. Among the Nordic countries, the CRT model has been particularly influential in Norway, where ‘Ambulante akutteam (AAT)’ is a widespread psychiatric emergency service for adult patients. However, the clinical practice of these teams varies significantly. To aid further development of the service and guide future research efforts, we carried out a scoping review to provide an up-to-date overview of research available in primary studies focusing on phenomena related to CRTs in English and Scandinavian literature.
