Crisis Intervention Team - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Holly Springs, MS.

A crisis situation, such as someone suffering the devastating repercussions of a mental health issue like a drug or alcohol addiction, calls for an intervention by a team of professionals who can make sure they accept the treatment they so desperately need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Holly Springs 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 individuals in crisis. This starts with the training and education of law enforcement officers, healthcare providers, and other contributing team members in the community so they know how to respond and work together during such a crisis. There are education programs available to educate law enforcement officers and 911 emergency operators for example, which includes 40 hours of training in collaborating with the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis, refining verbal de-escalation skills so that they can approach and handle the crisis without it becoming a potentially violent or aggressive event, etc.

In many cases, Crisis Intervention Teams also help by way of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to appropriately respond to the incident as a health episode and not a crime keeps people having a mental health crisis out of jail and instead where they should be, in a hospital or treatment setting receiving help. Additionally this keeps people with mental health issues out of prison where they do not have access to adequate mental health therapy and resources to properly handle their issue, such as a substance abuse disorder. In lieu of jail, those in crisis can receive behavioral therapies, counseling, medication and other treatment to rehabilitate them. This not only benefits the individual 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 treat them in a mental health program.
