Objective: Identification of interventions to prevent coercive measures in the event of escalating crisis situations in an inpatient acute psychiatric treatment context.
Methods: Content analysis of 98 joint crisis plans (JCP) using frequency analysis (secondary data analysis).
Results: In over half of the joint crisis plans, withdrawal to a low-stimulation environment (64.3%), a conversation (62.2%), and a walk (57.1%) were agreed upon as intervention for escalating crisis situations. A significant difference (p=0.020) was found in relation to the intake of (on-demand) medication, which was determined exclusively by males.
Conclusions: The results provide potentially helpful suggestions for escalating crisis situations and gender-specific findings with regard to the agreed interventions.
