There continues to be an increased interest in developing community-based services for children and adolescents as an alternative to inpatient care. However, there has been much more talk than action in creating such alternatives. This paper describes the success of a crisis stabilization program for children and adolescents in a community mental health center which historically over-utilized the State psychiatric facility for youth. The Crisis Stabilization Program consists of three components: (1) a two-person crisis team, (2) a four-person on-call team for after hours crises, and (3) funds which the crisis team utilized to broker for a wider array of community-based services.
人们对于为儿童和青少年开发社区服务以替代住院治疗的兴趣持续增加。然而，在创建此类替代方案方面，讨论得多，行动得少。本文描述了一个社区心理健康中心针对儿童和青少年的危机稳定项目的成功案例，该中心在历史上过度使用了州立青少年精神病设施。危机稳定项目由三个部分组成：（1）一个两人危机应对小组，（2）一个四人夜间应急小组，负责处理夜间危机，（3）危机应对小组用于促成更广泛的社区服务的资金。
