Brief Intervention Sample Clauses

The Brief Intervention clause establishes a process for providing short, focused support or counseling to individuals, typically in contexts such as healthcare, education, or social services. This clause outlines when and how such interventions should be initiated, who is responsible for delivering them, and the expected outcomes or follow-up actions. Its core practical function is to ensure timely and effective assistance for individuals at risk or in need, thereby addressing issues early and potentially preventing escalation.

Brief Intervention. Those patients identified as drinking at increasing or higher risk levels (scores 8 -19) should be offered brief advice.
