I'm gonna go with: don't send cops on welfare checks. Send somebody competent to respond to mental health challenges, preferably someone not wearing a police uniform (after all, at this point a lot of folks think "unaccountable killer" when they see that uniform and there's honestly reason for that).
Calling the police for a wellness check is just legalized swatting..
Calling cops for welfare check is like using chainsaw to cut a pie
It's like using a gun to make Swiss cheese!
