Assignment 2: Intervention Treatment Plan


To prepare: Review the agency’s intervention/treatment plan used to engage clients. After reviewing the agency’s intervention/treatment plan, consult the literature and conduct extensive research, with the goal of finding best practices that supports or adds to the agency’s current intervention/treatment plan. The purpose of this assignment is to find research that supports or adds to the agency’s current intervention/treatment approach.

Submit a 1-2 page paper in which you:

  1. Briefly describe the agency’s intervention/treatment plan
  2. Briefly discuss best practices about interventions identified in the literature
  3. Briefly discuss how the agency can incorporate those best practices into the current intervention/treatment plan
  4. Provide a brief summary of the similarities and differences between the intervention/treatment plan used at the agency and the suggested practices in the literature

Notes: I am interning at Lakeside Crisis Stabilization Center located in Bloomingdale, Georgia. On the treatment plan, goals are smart, and person centered. The goals are created by clients not staff. The treatment plan is part of state requirements. All services here are required on the treatment plan.
