Crisis Intervention Team - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Ravenna, OH.

A crisis situation, such as someone struggling with the devastating consequences of a mental health situation like a drug or alcohol 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 Ravenna is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and utilizes healthcare, law enforcement and other concerned agencies as well as family members to help individuals 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 address the situation and work together during such a crisis. There are training programs available to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which includes 40 hours of training in supporting the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis intervention, learning verbal de-escalation skills so that they can approach and handle the crisis without it becoming a possibly dangerous or antagonistic episode, 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 crisis and not a crime helps keep individuals having a mental health crisis out of jail and instead where they should be, in treatment and receiving 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 appropriately address their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Rather than in jail, those in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other treatment to help them recover. This not only helps the person in crisis, but also the entire community 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 program.
