Genevieve counties. You would be responding to individuals who are at risk of harming themselves, or others, and conduct assessments of the individual's current situation to ensure their safety and determine the best course for treatment. In this role, you will be working extremely closely with local law enforcement and emergency departments. With this position, you would also be responsible for providing agency discharge documentation as needed. What is the Crisis Intervention Program? Crisis Intervention involves outreach services for individuals who are at risk of harming themselves or others. Master degreed professionals conduct nonjudgmental assessments of individuals' current situations to ensure their physical and psychological safety and to determine disposition for treatment. Community Counseling Center in conjunction with the Department of Mental Health provides an 800 Crisis Line through a regional contract between all Administrative Agents in the Southeast Region of the State and Behavioral Health Response (BHR) in St. Louis. The system, Missouri Access Crisis and Response System (MOCARS) involves emergency calls to be screened by BHR, which forwards the caller's information to the Center's on-call staff.

Team Based Approach: Communication and collaborate is key to ensure safety of individuals. Work with client's treatment teams, outside providers, and support systems to obtain information and assist in safety planning when needed. What you already know!

Staying organized and having excellent time management skills will help you succeed in this position. How to think critically to provide quality mental health services. You are more than familiar with the world of mental health and understand the importance of having a client-centered approach to treatment, but you also know that every case you present to is unique, with its own risk factors, protective factors, mental health needs, and natural supports. Additionally, you have a master's degree in Mental Health and would be considered a Qualified Mental Health Professional. How to communicate effectively. There are many moving parts associated with a client's treatment, and you know how to navigate these effectively to ensure the client is receiving appropriate services. How to work independently to accomplish a task. While having a team-based approach is important for this position, you primarily are working independently. However, you will have supports available 24/7 for any questions or consultation that you need. What you will learn (if you don't know already)! How to deliver crisis intervention services to a diverse population. Including the various documentation skills needed and learning our Electronic Health Record System. How to utilize your time management skills for collaborative documentation to ensure all notes are being completed on time; ensuring your client is receiving quality care.

This position can be hectic, and it is important to demonstrate those self-care techniques to ensure you are not getting burnt out. How Success is Measured: Direct Service: Timely response to crisis calls in the two-county coverage area. Documentation: Providing quality, thorough, and concise documentation. Ensuring that your documentation is completed within the designated timeframe by utilizing collaborative documentation. Client Success: Coordinating appropriate community aftercare, including but not limited to explaining to the client the registration and enrollment process through CCC, providing community resources to assist with immediate needs, working with client and natural supports to ensure safety while maintaining the least restrictive environment, also phone surveys are completed monthly per provider to obtain feedback from clients on the crisis interaction. Communication: Communicating with the client, family, and others associated with the client's safety. This includes hospitals, referred agencies, law enforcement, and CCC programs. If you are interested in staying busy, not being stuck behind a desk, and meeting a wide variety of people; this is the position for you. The great thing about working in the ESS role, is that no two days are the same, but it does come with its own challenges, including stressful situations, and having to think critically and being flexible with each unique case.
