• Poulsbo CARES sees success in reducing 911 calls, ED visits (kitsapdailynews.com) — Poulsbo residents now have fewer low-level 911 calls and ER visits thanks to the Poulsbo Fire CARES behavioral health team, which serves Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island, and North Kitsap. With just two workers on the local team and limited weekday hours, CARES focuses on follow-up visits, connecting frequent 911 users to mental health, substance use, and safety resources at no cost.
