Crisis Intervention Team - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Apache Junction, AZ.

A crisis situation, such as someone struggling with the devastating effects of a mental health issue like alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention directed by professionals who can help get them the treatment they need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Apache Junction is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and activates healthcare, law enforcement and other concerned agencies as well as family members to assist those in crisis. This begins with the training of law enforcement officers, healthcare providers, and other relevant team members in the community so they learn how to respond and effectively work together during such a crisis. There are programs offered to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which involves 40 hours of training in supporting the mental health professionals they will be working with during the crisis, learning verbal de-escalation techniques so that they can approach and handle the crisis without it turning into a potentially combative or antagonistic situation, etc.

In many instances, 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. This also keeps individuals with mental health disorders out of prison where they will not be able to appropriately address their issue, 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 benefits the individual 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 properly treat them in an appropriate mental health recovery program.
