Download or read book Screening Assessment and Treatment of Substance Use Disorders written by Lena Lundgren and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a clear and pressing need for health professionals, including social workers, to be trained in evidence-based practices (EBPs) in the area of substance use disorders (SUD). The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and other national organizations and government agencies have all put out reports calling for this vital need, though there remains a significant shortage of properly trained clinicians. The aim of this book is to provide an integrated perspective on addiction treatment on the evidence-base of psychosocial and medication-assisted treatment for substance use disorder. The volume is unique in that it critically examines the evidence base of both psychosocial and pharmacological treatment practices targeting a profession of social work audience. It is also one of few that (1) incorporates evidence both from the United States and internationally, and (2) presents a methodology that permits the authors to systematically review a large number of empirically based studies in an organized and easy-to-read manner. Additionally, the text incorporates a health disparities perspective and describes implementation barriers at the organizational, community, and policy levels. It can be used in policy, human behavior, and clinical practice both nationally and internationally.

Download or read book TIP 35 Enhancing Motivation for Change in Substance Use Disorder Treatment Updated 2019 written by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivation is key to substance use behavior change. Counselors can support clients' movement toward positive changes in their substance use by identifying and enhancing motivation that already exists. Motivational approaches are based on the principles of person-centered counseling. Counselors' use of empathy, not authority and power, is key to enhancing clients' motivation to change. Clients are experts in their own recovery from SUDs. Counselors should engage them in collaborative partnerships. Ambivalence about change is normal. Resistance to change is an expression of ambivalence about change, not a client trait or characteristic. Confrontational approaches increase client resistance and discord in the counseling relationship. Motivational approaches explore ambivalence in a nonjudgmental and compassionate way.
Download or read book Comprehensive Case Management for Substance Abuse Treatment TIP 27 written by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-23 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Case management has been variously classified as a skill group, a core function, service coordination, or a network of "friendly neighbors." Although it defies precise definition, case management generally can be described as a coordinated approach to the delivery of health, substance abuse, mental health, and social services, linking clients with appropriate services to address specific needs and achieve stated goals. The Consensus Panel that developed this TIP believes that case management lends itself to the treatment of substance abuse, particularly for clients with other disorders and conditions who require multiple services over extended periods of time and who face difficulty in gaining access to those services. This document details the factors that programs should consider as they decide to implement case management or modify their current case management activities. This summary is excerpted from the main text, in which references to the research appear.

Download or read book Screening and Assessing Adolescents for Substance Use Disorders written by Ken C. Winters and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS. In recognition of the importance of developing reliable, valid, and clinically useful instruments as well as procedures for screening adolescents for substance use disorders, the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) in 1992 convened a Panel of experienced researchers and clinicians who work with troubled youths and their families. A year later, CSAT convened another Panel that examined substance use disorder treatment for adolescents and outlined state-of-the-art treatment guidelines. Two Treatment Improvement Protocols (TIPs 3 and 4) were developed from these efforts. Given the continued significance of assessment and treatment of adolescents' substance use, CSAT convened another Panel in 1997 to update both of the earlier TIPs. This TIP should be viewed as a companion volume to TIP 32, Treatment of Adolescents With Substance Use Disorders (CSAT, 1999), which updates TIP 4. The original Panel on adolescent substance use screening and assessment had two goals. The first was to discuss the problems of adolescent substance use disorders from the viewpoints of the Panel Members, who come from a wide spectrum of backgrounds and specialty areas. The emphasis was on practical clinical procedures to help treatment providers improve care. A second goal for the Panel was to review, from a practical perspective, available instruments, procedures, and measures for assessing adolescent substance use in various settings, including rehabilitation, that could be used easily by clinicians and other workers in the field. The Revision Panel preserved the original goals but also incorporated new research, updated summaries of previously listed instruments, and added recently developed tools. This TIP incorporates the deliberations of the 1992 Consensus Panel and the 1997 Revision Panel. It concentrates on the strategies, procedures, and instruments that are appropriate for the initial detection of substance-using adolescents, the comprehensive assessment of their problems, and subsequent treatment planning. Although the TIP summarizes many instruments, it does not endorse any screening or assessment tools. The purposes of the TIP are several: (1) To provide general guidelines for evaluating, developing, and administering screenings and assessment instruments and processes for those who screen and assess young people for substance use disorders (2) To inform a wide range of people whose work brings them in contact with adolescents in problem situations (e.g., teachers, guidance counselors, school nurses, police probation officers, coaches, and family service workers) about the processes, methods, and tools available to screen for potential substance use problems in adolescents (3) To discuss strategies and accepted techniques that can be used by treatment personnel to detect related problems in the adolescent's life, including problems with family and peers, and psychiatric issues, and to see that these problems are dealt with during the primary intervention for a substance use disorder (4) To outline a screening and assessment system designed to identify those youths with potential substance use problems in various settings Adolescents differ from adults physiologically and emotionally and are covered by different laws and social services. This revised TIP is designed to help juvenile justice, health and human service, and substance use disorder treatment personnel better identify, screen, and assess people 11 to 21 years old who may be experiencing substance-related problems. The TIP details warning signs of substance use disorders among adolescents, when to screen, when to assess, what domains besides substance use to assess, and how to involve the family and other collaterals. Also covered are the legal issues of screening and assessing teenagers, including confidentiality, duty to warn, and how to communicate with other agencies. The TIP also includes a chapter specifically for those working in the juvenile justice system who want to improve their screening and assessment procedures. Appendix A lists the citations referred to throughout this TIP and relevant to the instrument summaries. Appendix B provides up-to-date summaries of instruments relevant for screening and comprehensively assessing substance-abusing adolescents. Appendix C contains excerpts from "Drug Testing of Juvenile Detainees," a publication prepared by the American Correctional Association and the Institute for Behavior and Health, Inc., under a grant from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice.
