# Treatment Implementation Considerations

**Strategy**

**Implementation Considerations**

**Strategy 5:** Build resiliency through improvements in work processes

- Supervision managers equipped with the necessary skills needed to support the officers they supervise increase the effectiveness of treatment efforts
  - Managers support includes motivating as well as being a resource for officers who have questions about how supervision practices can support treatment efforts.
- We recommend departments emphasize providing officers with the resources that enable them to implement changes within the specific context of their caseload and their department.
  - This includes receiving proper training on the unique needs of their caseload if supervising a special population
- Departments should consider implementing processes where officers can support each other through regular communication and sharing experiences.

This can allow officers to learn from each other building connectivity and camaraderie.

**Strategy 6:** Collaborate with agencies toward a common goal of improving client outcomes and promoting public safety

- The most effective forms of assessment and treatment are provided by expert clinicians in the community. As such, one of the most important tasks for departments is developing a robust network of community resources to supply the treatment needed by their clients.
- Departments should encourage frequent communication and collaboration between officers and community resources.

This allows officers to be aware of client progress and to structure supervision efforts to supplement treatment efforts.

**Strategy 7:** Build resiliency by altering client involvement in key decisions

- All assessment results should be discussed with clients.
  - We recommend this discussion include
    - taking the time to fully explain the results
    - making room for clients to ask clarifying questions
    - allowing clients to express any disagreement.
  - Officers should discuss the treatment interventions that the department suggests as a result of the assessments.

When doing so, the client and officer should collaborate to decide what treatment intervention is the best for the client.
