Forensic mental health experts review police alternatives to arresting mentally ill persons in confrontations, the efficacy of problem-solving courts, and continuity of care between jail and community. The book's best-practices approach extends to frequently related issues such as addiction, domestic violence, juvenile considerations, and trauma and describes successful programs coordinating judicial and clinical systems. These guidelines for decriminalizing non-violent behaviors and making appropriate services available to those with mental problems should also help address issues affecting the justice system, such as overcrowding. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded in the coverage: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Best Practices Model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest practices in law enforcement crisis interventions with the mentally ill.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProblem-solving courts and therapeutic jurisprudence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompetency restoration programs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA review of best practices for the treatment of persons with mental illness in jail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConclusions, recommendations, and helpful appendices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its practical vision for systemic improvement, \u003ci\u003eBest Practices Model for Intervention with the Mentally Ill in the Criminal Justice System\u003c\/i\u003e is progressive reading for practitioners in the mental health field, especially practitioners working with inmates, as well as for stakeholders in the law enforcement and justice systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-08-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319216553\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-21656-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 88\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44448523649164,"sku":"9783319216553","price":76.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319216553.jpg?v=1775794756","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319216553","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
