Luzerner Psychiatrie AG (lups)

What this service does for you

The KIZ is the contact point after the first telephone crisis report at lups: People aged 16 and older from the cantons of Luzern, Obwalden, and Nidwalden receive a first appointment with a specialist within 24 hours. After that, they get about five time-limited sessions, either as an outpatient or at home. This can be helpful for affected people or relatives when a severe diagnosis, such as a stroke, triggers an acute emotional crisis. The KIZ is not responsible for involuntary admissions, acute suicidal thoughts, or acute substance addiction – the 24-hour emergency line ZAK handles these cases. A prior report to the ZAK is required.
