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

A crisis situation, such as a person experiencing the tragic consequences of a mental health issue like alcoholism or drug addiction, calls for an intervention by a team of professionals who can make sure they accept the treatment they so desperately need before it's too late. A Crisis Intervention Team in Bisbee is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and activates healthcare, law enforcement 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 learn how to react and work together during such a crisis. There are training programs offered to educate law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which includes 40 hours of training in dealing 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 turning into a possibly 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 what is really meant to be a mental health issue and not a crime helps keep individuals having a mental health crisis out of jail and where they should be, in treatment and receiving help. This also keeps individuals with mental health problems out of prison where they will not be able to appropriately handle their issue, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, individuals in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other mental health services to rehabilitate them. This not only helps the individual in crisis, but also the entire community because it costs more to keep someone with a mental health disorder in prison than it does to treat them in a mental health recovery program.
