Job Details
Use your knowledge of behavioral health to assist law enforcement in responding to individuals experiencing behavioral health challenges!
Become a part of our team of competent and compassionate professionals as a Clinician in the Community Clinical Response Team program at Behavioral Health Network! Clinicians work with an interdisciplinary team, including clinical staff and law enforcement, to provide community-based care to individuals through immediate clinical intervention, including mental status, social functioning, and level of risk. They determine the need for Crisis treatment, consult with the clinical supervisor, and implement appropriate treatment or referral responses. Clinicians also work closely with youth and their families, identifying signs of mental health and substance abuse and performing risk evaluation, intervention, and de-escalation.
Clinicians use their knowledge of the Recovery-Oriented model, multi-modal therapies, family dynamics, and normal child, adolescent, and adult development in their work. They may also provide community-based care through effective and efficient telephone support, consultation, information, and referrals with law enforcement. Bilingual Clinicians may translate via phone and in person within the crisis and acute care programs. They determine if a higher level of clinical intervention is needed, and they complete all necessary paperwork in a clear, timely, and compliant manner.
Behavioral Health Network encourages Clinicians to engage with supervisory staff for training and development and to attend related seminars and conferences, enhancing their clinical, law enforcement, and justice system knowledge.
Community Clinical Response Team, one of the newest BHN programs, works collaboratively with law enforcement and Crisis staff to assist and alleviate law enforcement with mental health and crisis calls in the Springfield, MA area. BHN brings the mental health emergency responder personnel to individuals in need, creating a direct line of communication upon which law enforcement can rely.
