Intervention

Response Plan

The local police have asked our team develop an


Interagency Mental Health and Crisis Intervention
Response Plan that includes local, state, and
federal crisis intervention agencies and other
emergency and private resources for the purpose
of responding to a terrorist event or natural
disaster. The chief has informed you that he is
concerned that many cities, including his own, do
not have a written mental health response plan for
critical incidents.

Crisis Intervention

Personal Loss: Bereavement and Grief


The Dual Process Model
1. Identify and explore both loss and restoration stressors
and the
specific avoidance and confrontation responses the client
uses.
2. Keep in mind that an initial period when the client is fixed
in a loss
of

orientation is normal. Identify evidence (or lack thereof)


oscillation as time moves forward.

3. Normalize and validate the dual process model by


explaining how
it works and why it applies to the clients particular
situation.
4. Address problematic avoidance such as excessive
alcohol/drug

What the specific crisis response duties of those


individual organizations will be in the event of a terrorist
attack
