GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Swedish term or phrase:tidiga egna insatser
English translation:early intervention

Swedish term or phrase: själv hjälper till genom tidiga egna insatser
Context: Alarm operators needed to have basic training with continued educational opportunities in order to be able to efficiently answer emergency calls.

Sådan utbildning kostar pengar men lönar sig i längden eftersom samhällets totalkostnader för olyckor och skador kommer att bli lägre om den enskilde själv tar ett större ansvar och "själv hjälper till genom tidiga egna insatser."

I am having troubles wording the last part of the sentence. Suggestions please!
