Crisis Intervention Team - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Santa Rosa, NM.

A crisis situation, for example a person experiencing the tragic repercussions of a mental health situation such as alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention directed by professionals who can make sure they accept the help they need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Santa Rosa is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and utilizes law enforcement, healthcare, and other concerned agencies as well as family members to assist addicts in crisis. This starts with the training and education of healthcare providers, law enforcement officers, and other relevant team members in the community so they know how to address the situation and effectively 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 supporting the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis intervention, refining verbal de-escalation techniques so that they can address and resolve the crisis without it becoming a possibly combative or antagonistic episode, etc.

In many instances, Crisis Intervention Teams also help by way of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to appropriately respond to what is really meant to be a mental health episode and not a crime keeps people with mental health disorders out of jail and where they should be, in treatment and receiving help. Additionally this keeps people with mental health disorders out of prison where they will not be able to properly handle their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, those in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other treatment to rehabilitate them. This not only helps the individual in crisis, but also the entire community because it costs more to keep someone with a mental health disorder in prison than it does to treat them in an appropriate mental health recovery program.
