The patient should be supported to develop a crisis self-management plan as early as possible in the treatment episode.
- A crisis care plan identifying how a team aims to respond to a crisis should be made explicit
- The phase of treatment should be clearly identified.
- Risk management plans should be explicit.
- Care Programme Approach may by useful in helping to manage complexity or severity. See here for more information .
