[Crisis intervention technic].

Abstract

Based on the various principles of crisis intervention, a model of it is designed which divides it into four phases: (1) beginning of intervention (established of a relationship, assessment of the client's condition, estimate of the gravity of the problem, and design of the plan of action along the lines of minimal difference); (2) actual intervention; (3) conclusion of the crisis intervention, and (4) follow-up. This system conveys a good insight into the activities of a crisis centre, and it can contribute to the diffcult and up to now unsolved problem of how such institutions can be evaluated.

A survey of sexual trauma treatment provided by VA medical centers.

In 1992 Congress mandated the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide treatment to veterans traumatized by sexual assault experienced during active military duty. A 1995 survey of how VA medical centers had responded to this mandate indicated that 51 percent of 136 centers had established a sexual trauma treatment team. Teams treated a mean+/-SD of 5.5+/-10 patients a week, and newly referred veterans waited a mean of 3.3+/-4 days for evaluation. Teams varied in the discipline mix of providers, training, organizational structure, services offered, and caseload. Medical centers without dedicated treatment teams offered nonspecialized services to sexually traumatized veterans or offered community referrals for sexual trauma treatment services.
