[Teamwork in juvenile social work as an instrument in crisis intervention]

The changing emphasis in psychiatric care demands the use of new strategies and the development of sociopsychiatric institutions. The term 'crisis intervention' is suitable in this respect insofar as it also includes the aspects of prevention and follow-up care. An attempt at the development of a model for multiprofessional teamwork in juvenile social work is outlined under the aspect of sectorised sociopsychiatric care. The exhaustion of the basically available possibilities is at the moment limited due to structural difficulties.
