Crisis Intervention Team - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Mc Arthur, OH.

A crisis event, such as someone suffering the tragic repercussions of a mental health issue 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 Mc Arthur is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and utilizes law enforcement, healthcare, and other relevant agencies as well as family members to assist addicts in crisis. This begins with the training of healthcare providers, law enforcement officers, and other relevant team members in the community so they learn how to respond and work together during such a crisis. There are programs available to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which involves 40 hours of training in collaborating with the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis intervention, refining verbal de-escalation skills so that they can address and resolve the crisis without it developing into a potentially violent or aggressive event, etc.

In many cases, Crisis Intervention Teams also help by way of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to properly respond to what is really meant to be a mental health issue and not a crime helps keep people having a mental health crisis out of jail and instead where they should be, in a hospital or treatment setting getting help. This also keeps individuals with mental health issues out of prison where they will not be able to appropriately handle their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Rather than in jail, those in crisis can receive behavioral therapies, counseling, medication and other recovery services to help them recover. This not only helps 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 properly treat them in an appropriate mental health program.
