CIT is more than training

Schizophrenia Facts ~2.5 million U.S. citizens are affected
Typical onset between ages 16-30 Symptoms include altered perceptions, thinking, and disorganized behavior Unemployment, homelessness, and incarceration are common People with schizophrenia die 8-10 years earlier than other people
6
Treatment Delays are Common
The time between the onset of psychotic symptoms and initiation of treatment is typically 1-3 years in the U.S. Lengthy treatment delays are associated with negative outcomes Poorer response to antipsychotic medications Poorer symptomatic and functional outcomes
7
Early Intervention Matters
Rapid remission of positive symptoms Lower rates of psychiatric re-hospitalization Decreased substance use Improved social and vocational functioning Increased quality of life
8
Recommended Practices
Research-supported interventions Low-dose antipsychotic medications Cognitive and behavioral psychotherapy Family education and support Educational and vocational rehabilitation Team-based, person-centered care Shared decision-making Strong community partnerships Twin goals are to reduce DUP and provide EIS to promote long term recovery and reduce disability.

RAISE Findings After 2 years, Coordinated Specialty Care was superior to usual community care on: Quality of life Symptomatic improvement Involvement in work or school Cost-effectiveness CSC worked better for patients with shorter duration of untreated psychosis DUP is the interval between the onset of psychotic symptoms and initiation of antipsychotic treatment Kane JM, Robinson, DG, Schooler, NR, et al.

Typical Pathways to Care
CMHC Police/Crisis Services Emergency Department Inpatient Unit School Counselor PC Physician Onset of Symptoms Help Seeking Referral to CSC Program 1-3 year delay!
17
Law Enforcement Involvement
29% of persons with MI have police contact along the pathway to care 14-58% of persons with FEP are incarcerated before receiving care Incarceration after psychosis onset can delay treatment by ~2 years 29% rate of police involvement in pathway to MH care (US studies) – Livingston, Psychiatric Services, 67: 14% prior incarceration – 45% of FEP patients had police/ambulance contact – Anderson et al., Soc Psychiatry and Psychiatr Epidemiol, 48: 57% of FEP patients had prior incarceration – Broussard et al., 2013 58% of FEP patients had prior incarceration – Ramsay et al., J Am Acad Psychiatry Law, 39:57-64 59% of FEP patients had prior incarceration – Ramsay et al., Psychiatric Services, 65(6): Median treatment delay for those incarcerated during the duration of untreated psychosis was >2 years longer than those not incarcerated during DUP – Ramsay et al., Psychiatric Services, 65(6): Anderson et al; 2013; Broussard et al, 2013; Livingston, 2016; Prince et al, 2007; Ramsey et al, 2011; Ramsey et al, 2014

Safe and effective resolution of mental health crises
Natural Partners CSC Leaders CIT Leaders Safe and effective resolution of mental health crises Common goals of: (1) resolving mental health crises safely; (2) linking individuals in crisis to appropriate mental health services; (3) diverting individuals from the criminal justice system, when appropriate.
19
CSC Team Leader Role Assertive community outreach
Cultivate referral network Create strong partnerships and interagency agreements Facilitate access to CSC care Identify first episode psychosis cases early Shorten duration of untreated psychosis Prevent traumatic experiences Cultivate referral networks; facilitate access to care; outreach to patients and family members; coordinate clinical services among team members; provide ongoing clinician supervision
20
Outreach to Community Partners
CMHC Police/Crisis Services Emergency Department Inpatient Unit School Counselor PC Physician Onset of Symptoms Help Seeking CSC Team Leader CSC goal: <12 weeks
21
Crisis Intervention Team Leader
Seek out local CSC Team Connect with Team Leader Create a strong partnership and interagency agreements Encourage cross training Resolve mental health crises safely Link individuals to CSC mental health services Divert from CJ system, when appropriate

New Federal Funding Accelerates Implementation of Evidence-Based Care for First Episode Psychosis
Dates and Milestones July, 2009 RAISE studies begin December, 2013 RAISE feasibility study completed January, 2014 H.R ($25M set-aside for FEP) April, 2014 NIMH/SAMHSA provide guidance to states December, 2014 H.R. 88 ($25M set-aside for FEP) October, 2015 RAISE clinical trial completed CMS coverage of FEP intervention services December, 2015 H.R ($50M set-aside for FEP) RAISE = Recovery After and Initial Schizophrenia Episode. States’ status is based on: November 2014 review of states’ revised FY14 CMHBG program plans submitted in response to the 5% set-aside for FEP treatment programs. 2015 updates to state plans from GA, ME, and MN about new FEP initiatives related to the set-aside initiative. Plans submitted to SAMHSA in 2015 for the FY2016-FY2017 set-aside initiative. Plans downloaded from Mental Health Block Grant Plans:

Finding Local CSC Programs

Summary Treatment delay worsens outcomes in serious mental illness
Early intervention improves symptoms, functioning, and quality of life in FEP Law enforcement officers are often key agents in directing pathways to care To achieve common goals, CSC and CIT leaders must engage actively over time Many of the ~200 CSC clinics nationwide overlap with the 2,646 local CIT programs
