Crisis Intervention Team - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Portland, OR.

A crisis situation, for example someone struggling with the destructive consequences of a mental health disability like 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 Portland is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and utilizes healthcare, law enforcement and other relevant agencies as well as family members to help addicts in crisis. This starts with the training of healthcare providers, law enforcement officers, and other contributing team members in the community so they know how to address the situation and effectively work together during such a crisis. There are training programs offered to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency operators 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 developing into a possibly violent or antagonistic event, etc.

In many instances, Crisis Intervention Teams also help by way of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to appropriately respond to the incident as a mental health crisis 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 receiving help. This also keeps people with mental health disorders out of prison where they do not have access to adequate mental health therapy and resources to appropriately handle their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. Instead of jail, individuals in crisis can receive counseling, behavioral therapies, medication and other treatment to rehabilitate them. This not only helps 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 treat them in a mental health program.
