Crisis Intervention Team - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Coshocton, OH.

A crisis event, such as someone experiencing the tragic effects of a mental health situation like a drug or alcohol 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 Coshocton is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and activates healthcare, law enforcement and other relevant agencies as well as family members to help addicts in crisis. This starts with the training and education of healthcare providers, law enforcement officers, and other participating team members in the community so they learn how to react and work together during such a crisis. There are programs offered 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, refining verbal de-escalation techniques so that they can approach and resolve the crisis without it developing into a possibly dangerous or hostile situation, etc.

In many cases, Crisis Intervention Teams are used as a means of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to appropriately respond to what is really meant to be a health episode and not a crime keeps people with mental health disorders out of jail and where they should be, in treatment and getting 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 address their issue, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, individuals in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other mental health services to help them recover. This not only benefits the person in crisis, but also all of society because it costs more to incarcerate someone with a mental health disorder in prison than it does to treat them in an appropriate mental health recovery program.
