	Intervention (counseling) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Interventions have been used to address serious personal problems, including, but not limited to, compulsive gambling, compulsive eating and other eating disorders, tobacco smoking, and various types of poor personal health care.
		Interventions are either direct, typically involving a confrontative meeting with the alcohol or other drug dependent person (the most typical type of intervention) or indirect, involving work with a co-dependent family to encourage them to be more effective in helping the addicted individual.
		In the same sense, direct interventions tend to be a form of short-term therapy aimed at getting the addicted person into inpatient rehabilitation, whereas indirect interventions are more of a long-term therapy, directed at changing the family system, and therefore promoting healing of addiction.

	= Exit Counseling: A Family Intervention - book review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The author's philosophy of intervention is based on an educational model with the goal of helping the client re-evaluate his or her commitment to the group.
		During the intervention the exit counselors, after establishing the necessary rapport, explore the client's cult background, teach the client about mind control, and help the client understand how mind-control factors influenced his or her own cult experience.
		The fact is that exit counseling is hard work, done by families, contact persons, counselors, rehabilitation personnel, and, most important of all, the ex-member of the group.

	Rick Ross: Expert Consultant and Intervention Specialist
		This may lead the subject of the intervention to feel that the real issue is not the behavior and influence of the group/leader, but instead a theological debate, specifically that the group/leader is wrong, because the family and intervention professional know what belief is right.
		However, though the intervention may begin as a surprise, the person who is the focus of the intervention always has the implicit right to decline and refuse to cooperate, or may decide later to discontinue and leave.
		An intervention professional should have a detailed fee agreement that itemizes and explains his or her fee structure, costs associated with an intervention and outlines the terms of the intervention explicitly (see Ethical Standards).

	section two COUNSELING
		The intervention groups received individual counseling sessions at the time of the first prenatal visit, self-help manuals that targeted pregnant women, and mail or phone follow-up, while control groups received advice alone.

		Although there are no data on the effectiveness of clinician counseling in preventing the initiation of tobacco use by children, school-based programs are effective in reducing the prevalence of smoking among children for up to 4 years.

		Whether or not such intervention prevents or improves nutritional status has not been examined, but evidence clearly suggests that inadequate nutritional intake is an important contributor for PEM in these patients.
		Examples of such conditions are unexplained reductions in energy or protein intake, depression, deterioration in other measures of protein-energy status, pregnancy, acute inflammatory or catabolic illnesses particularly in the elderly, hospitalization, diabetes mellitus, large or prolonged doses of glucocorticoid or other catabolic medications, and post-renal transplant allograft loss.
		A better understanding of the effects of nutrition intervention counseling methods (including quality of life scales) on nutritional intake, nutritional status, morbidity, and mortality should be evaluated in MD patients.
