Description

Drawing on the best practices from the United States and Canada, the book is filled with vivid examples that clearly demonstrate how a holistic, interdisciplinary, and collaborative approach is the most practical response to the challenges of working with people in crisis. This comprehensive text offers a field-tested framework and systematic method for including crisis content - critical life events, violence, victimization, suicide, and psychiatric emergencies - in the formal training of health and other human services professionals.
