SCAN Consensus Project - Substance misusing clients with mental health problems: A brief practitioner’s guide for Criminal Justice Integrated Teams
The guide has been designed specifically for staff in Criminal Justice Integrated Teams (CJITs) but it may also be useful to other service providers. Staff in these services see many clients who have both substance misuse and mental health problems (also known as comorbidity or dual diagnosis). While it is not the core role of CJITs to manage or treat the mental health element of a client’s co-occurring mental health problems, it is important to be able to recognise and refer clients with these problems to appropriate care and with the appropriate degree of urgency.
