Crisis resolution and home treatment teams respond rapidly to people experiencing mental health crises and offer an alternative to hospital admission. They are an increasingly important component of mental health care and are adopted by many health care systems around the world. This practical and pioneering book describes the evidence for the effectiveness of such teams, the principles underpinning them, how to set up and organise them, how patients should be assessed and what types of care the teams should offer. Other topics covered include integration of crisis teams with in-patient, community residential and day care services, the service users' experiences of crisis teams, and responding to diversity in home treatment. This book is essential reading for all policy makers, service managers and mental health workers interested in establishing or operating crisis resolution and home treatment services, as well as for researchers and students seeking to understand this model.

Psychological Crisis Intervention: The SAFER-R Model is designed to provide the reader with a simple set of guidelines for the provision of psychological first aid (PFA). The model of psychological first aid (PFA) for individuals presented in this volume is the SAFER-R model developed by the authors. Arguably it is the most widely used tactical model of crisis intervention in the world with roughly 1 million individuals trained in its operational and derivative guidelines. This model of PFA is not a therapy model nor a substitute for therapy. Rather it is designed to help crisis interventionists stabile and mitigate acute crisis reactions in individuals, as opposed to groups. Guidelines for triage and referrals are also provided. Before plunging into the step-by-step guidelines, a brief history and terminological framework is provided. Lastly, recommendations for addressing specific psychological challenges (suicidal ideation, resistance to seeking professional psychological support, and depression) are provided.

This innovative text focuses on a key aspect of community mental health care - Intensive Home Treatment (IHT). It examines the issues surrounding the provision of home treatment to individuals as an alternative to psychiatric admission. Divided into three parts the book discusses current practice in the UK, then describes some of the clinical approaches and interventions used in home treatment and goes on to explore the impact of interagency and interprofessional issues on the day to day working of home treatment services. Neil Brimblecombe has drawn together the work of a wide range of mental health professionals including nurses, social workers and psychiatrists to provide those who work in this progressive field an authoritative and comprehensive text which they will find invaluable as they develop their practice and provision of home treatments.

Reimagining Crisis Support aims to change the conversation about personal crisis from mental health discourse to one based in a social model of disability and human rights. Crisis support can be understood within a social model as support for making decisions and support to live independently in the community, as provided for in Articles 12 and 19 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Complementary to crisis support, we need community-led conflict resolution and violence prevention measures that are open to all sides of a story and sensitive to intersecting axes of oppression including disability-based discrimination?- a good fit with Articles 13 and 14 of the Convention. Policy should be developed based on these premises to replace involuntary commitment laws and coercive paternalism with a solidarity-based response to human needs and uphold the human rights of people with disabilities.

As a result of the growing amount of acute crisis events portrayed in the media that impact the lives of the general public, interest in crisis intervention, response teams, management, and stabilization has grown tremendously in the past decade. However, there exists little to no literature designed to give timely and comprehensive help for crisis intervention teams. This is a thorough revision of the first complete and authoritative handbook that prepares the crisis counselor for rapid assessment and timely crisis intervention in the 21st century. Expanded and fully updated, the Crisis Intervention Handbook: Assessment, Treatment, and Research, Third Edition focuses on crisis intervention services for persons who are victims of natural disasters, school-based and home-based violence, violent crimes, and personal or family crises. It applies a unifying model of crisis intervention, making it appropriate for front-line crisis workers-clinical psychologists, social workers, psychiatric-mental health nurses, and graduate students who need to know the latest steps and methods for intervening effectively with persons in acute crisis.

Crisis Intervention takes into account various environments and populations across the lifespan to provide students with practical guidelines for managing crises. Drawing on over 25 years of relevant experience, authors Alan A. Cavaiola and Joseph E. Colford cover several different types of crises frequently encountered by professionals in medical, school, work, and community settings. Models for effectively managing these crises are presented along with the authors’ own step-by-step approach, the Listen–Assess–Plan–Commit (LAPC) model, giving students the freedom to select a model that best fits their personal style or a given crisis. Future mental health professionals will gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence to help their clients manage the crises they will encounter in their day-to-day lives.
