Crisis Intervention Team - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Middletown, OH.

A crisis event, such as a person struggling with the tragic consequences of a mental health disability like alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention directed by professionals who can help get them the help they need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Middletown 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 law enforcement officers, healthcare providers, and other participating team members in the community so they know how to react and effectively work together during such a crisis. There are education programs available to educate 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, learning verbal de-escalation skills so that they can approach and resolve the crisis without it turning into a potentially violent or antagonistic situation, 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 health issue and not a crime keeps individuals with mental health disorders out of jail and where they should be, in treatment and receiving help. Additionally this keeps individuals with mental health issues out of prison where they do not have access to adequate mental health therapy and resources to appropriately handle their issue, such as a substance abuse disorder. Rather than in jail, those in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, 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 properly treat them in an appropriate mental health program.
