Community mental health centers can better engage clients with multiple diagnoses using flexible crisis teams. These teams can improve client connection to services and potentially reduce inpatient stays.

Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Services
  • Psychiatric Care
  • Community Psychiatry

Background:

  • Community mental health centers encounter challenges with clients exhibiting dual or triple diagnoses who are unresponsive to conventional treatments.
  • Effective engagement strategies are needed for multi-need individuals who often fall through traditional care pathways.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the utility of a crisis team in engaging and connecting clients with multiple diagnoses to community mental health services.
  • To assess the impact of crisis team intervention on inpatient length of stay for these complex clients.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a flexible crisis team within a community mental health center setting.
  • Focus on engaging clients with dual and triple diagnoses who have not responded to standard treatments.

Main Results:

  • Crisis teams demonstrate potential in engaging multi-need clients, facilitating their connection to community mental health center services.
  • While inpatient services remain necessary, crisis team intervention may contribute to a reduction in the length of inpatient stays.

Conclusions:

  • Flexible crisis teams can serve as a vital bridge for engaging hard-to-reach clients with complex diagnoses.
  • Careful planning for transitioning clients from crisis services to comprehensive care is essential for sustained treatment success.
