BACKGROUND:

The RISE Program (Restoring Individuals Safely and Effectively) administers forensic psychiatry services for the operation of a RISE program which includes compliance with County Rule 11 “Competency Evaluation and Restoration Program Procedures.” The Yuma RISE program, embedded in the detention center, is a treatment-intensive milieu-based model that quickly facilitates competency through group and individual therapy and intensive medication treatment. The Yuma RISE Program, outpatient, is a treatment-intensive model which quickly facilitates competency through community-based collaboration, continuity of care and services, and the individuals’ compliance with programmatic elements.

Philosophy:

The RISE Program embraces recovery-oriented, trauma-informed care for all patients. The recovery model promotes patient choice and tailors treatment to meet individual needs based on the assessments of a multi-disciplinary treatment team.

Services:

Competency restoration services for individuals found incompetent to stand trial, including assessment, individualized treatment planning, psychiatric evaluation and treatment, medication monitoring, psychological services, peer support and discharge planning.

Significant Achievements:
