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

A crisis situation, for example someone suffering the destructive effects of a mental health issue such as alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention by a team of professionals who can make sure they accept the help they so desperately need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Owensville 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 those in crisis. This begins with the training of healthcare providers, law enforcement officers, and other contributing team members in the community so they learn how to react and work together during such a crisis. There are education programs offered 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 techniques so that they can approach and resolve the crisis without it becoming a potentially dangerous or hostile 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 helps keep people having a mental health crisis out of jail and where they should be, in a hospital or treatment setting getting help. Additionally this keeps people with mental health problems out of prison where they will not be able to appropriately address their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, individuals in crisis can receive behavioral therapies, counseling, medication and other treatment to rehabilitate them. 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 a mental health recovery program.
