This tool is currently being used in Region 7. Feel free to adapt the form with your own local Mental Health Clinic information.
Dr Bengelsdorf worked with doctors to create a tool to assess risk. This tool is useful in assessing how safe the individual is by determining their responses to three questions that focus on
➢ dangerousness
➢ support system
➢ ability to cooperate
To assess determine the responses to the questions and calculate the score
➢ If High Intensity Crisis (score 3-9) then the individual would need to be hospitalized
➢ If Medium Intensity Crisis (score 10-12) then the individual needs to see someone this week.
➢ If Low End Crisis (score 13-15) then the individual should set up an appointment
