Crisis Intervention Team - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Hot Springs National Park, AR.

A crisis event, for example a person suffering the destructive effects of a mental health disability like alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention by a team of professionals who can help get them the treatment they so desperately need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Hot Springs National Park is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and utilizes healthcare, law enforcement and other relevant agencies as well as family members to help those in crisis. This begins with the training of law enforcement officers, healthcare providers, and other participating team members in the community so they learn how to react and work together during such a crisis. There are education programs available to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which involves 40 hours of training in dealing with the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis intervention, learning verbal de-escalation techniques so that they can approach and resolve the crisis without it developing into a possibly combative or hostile situation, etc.

In many instances, Crisis Intervention Teams also help by way of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to properly respond to the incident as a health episode and not a crime helps keep individuals having a mental health crisis out of jail and instead where they should be, in a hospital or treatment setting getting help. Additionally this keeps people with mental health disorders out of prison where they do not have access to adequate mental health therapy and resources to appropriately handle their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, individuals in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other mental health services to rehabilitate them. This not only helps the person in crisis, but also all of society because it costs more to keep someone with a mental health disorder in prison than it does to properly treat them in a mental health program.
