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 individual’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-day workshop consisting of classroom teaching each morning followed
by practicing learned skills each afternoon within the individual’s home. 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 individuals over a prolonged period of
time.
