Description
This in-person
workshop is available by invitation only to designated Managed Care
Organizations (MCO) and their behavioral health affiliates.
CAT is an
evidence-based psychosocial intervention designed to bypass cognitive and
motivational impairments associated with serious mental illness in an effort to
improve functional outcomes. CAT interventions include environmental supports
such as signs, checklists, alarms, pill containers, and the organization of belongings
to cue and sequence adaptive behaviors in the client’s home. The interventions
are individualized based upon a standardized assessment of each person’s needs
and challenges. CAT has been shown to decrease rates of relapse and to improve
multiple functional outcomes.
This is a 2 ½ to 3-day workshop consisting of classroom
teaching each morning followed by practicing learned skills each afternoon
within members’ homes. In-home visits consist of conducting assessments and
establishing supports according to the treatment manual. This training is best
suited for field-based staff who provide regular in-home visits to members over
a prolonged period of time. The in-person workshop is followed by three months
of every other week supervision via Skype or similar platform.
