Question

How to deal, as a mobile 2B-team, with the “final completion” of our intervention?

Problem description

We are in need of criteria to accomplish a treatment. This is often not  just an internal decision, cause a member of a mobile team is sometimes appointed as care mediator, i.e. the person who takes the initiative to organise a Psychiatric Patient Consultation.  These consultations are organised by the primary care of first line collaborative initiatives (and funded by the NIHDI -  the National Institute of Health and Disability Insurance)

Impact - effect

It’s not the easiest thing to do, as team member, quitting the network of partners around the client when the team argues that the case can be closed

To do

To do: for persons at the exit of the team, whose treatment objectives are realised and the treatment/ accompanying is finished, GGZ Mondriaan created a specific entrance, the so called CVV (central  front door for adults : contact centre and triage) in case they want to appeal again to the service.  Finished treatments can be started up again, very rapidly.  Shouldn’t we think about a similar concept, or a “wait and watch” as our colleagues could discover in GGZ Noord Holland Noord?  However, how to deal with the issue of medical responsibility for clients belonging to this category?
