Crisis Intervention Team - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Yuba City, CA.

A crisis situation, for example a person struggling with the devastating effects of a mental health situation such as alcoholism or drug 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 Yuba City is a form of community monitoring which calls upon and activates law enforcement, healthcare, and other concerned 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 know how to react and work together during such a crisis. There are training programs offered to train law enforcement officers and 911 emergency dispatchers for example, which includes 40 hours of training in collaborating with 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 developing into a possibly combative or antagonistic encounter, etc.

In many instances, Crisis Intervention Teams are used as a means of jail diversion. Meaning, being able to appropriately respond to what is really meant to be a mental health disturbance and not a crime keeps people with mental health disorders out of jail and where they should be, in treatment and receiving help. Additionally this keeps people with mental health disorders out of prison where they will not be able to properly address their disorder, such as a substance abuse disorder. In lieu of jail, individuals in crisis can receive behavioral therapies, counseling, medication and other recovery services to help them recover. This not only helps 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 properly treat them in an appropriate mental health recovery program.
