Abstract:
:Violence inflicted by individuals with mental illness towards healthcare workers has received significant media attention. Though such incidents are relatively infrequent, they inspire reactive responses and contribute to further stigmatization of the mentally ill. Prevention of violence is an important challenge for those who train and supervise mental health workers. Project Link is an outpatient treatment program designed to reduce jail and hospital recidivism among severely mentally ill adults with histories of criminal justice system involvement. Utilizing a Safety and Violence Education (SAVE) curriculum, Project Link has successfully transitioned high-risk mentally ill individuals from the criminal justice system into the community since 1995. The SAVE curriculum uses a preventative strategy to train case managers to identify warning signs of impending violence, and to safely engage patients in community settings. This paper will present an overview of the SAVE curriculum and its development, as well as results from a preliminary evaluation of trainee satisfaction.
