SERVICES OFFERED
Intensive Family Intervention
What can I expect from my IFI provider?
IFI is set up to work in a team mentality. Our teams are led by a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a team of three to four other providers who work as a cohesive unit to minimize the crisis that your family is going through. After receiving your referral, the LPC will call and schedule a time to come to your home. The LPC, team leader, will sit with you and listen to the needs that you and your family have. On the second home visit, he or she will then complete a treatment plan that will be explained to you in full detail. After visiting your home, the team gathers to discuss the needs of your family and the LPC then picks from the team at least one or two other Crisis Support Individuals (CSI’s) who are specially trained to work with you and your family.
IFI teams work intensively with your family for a limited time period which means that when we receive authorization to work with you, it is initially for no more than 90 days. In the most severe circumstances, we might acquire authorization for another 90 days. We are required to see the family a minimum of three times a week. However, in the most severe of needs, we are authorized to work with your family up to 12 hours a day. We are available to assist your family 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and have a team member who can be available to your home within hours, regardless of time, day or night.
