This book was released on 2011 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exploratory project focused on individuals with developmental disabilities and their use and abuse of substance. The lack of empirical research published for this specified population is the reason why this project was established. This population was overlooked based on society's ignorant views that individuals with developmental disabilities are not using or abusing substance. There were two purposes for this research project. The first purpose of the researcher project was to bring awareness and knowledge to the Social Work community about the lack of research in hopes for further studies on persons with developmental disabilities and their use and abuse of substance. The second purpose of this research project was to create a best practice model for treatment facilities/programs that incorporate the special needs of co-occurring disorders. There is lack of empirical data for facilities/programs that serve persons with developmental disabilities and substance abuse. The main goal of this project is to describe current available treatment facilities, as well as focus on developing a best practice for treatment facilities working with this population. The research design used for this project was the Exploratory Research Design. Data was collected through forensic literature from databases for secondary, empirical data through articles, books, journals and websites. The project also focused on a best practice model for treatment facilities of individuals with co-occurring disorders that include developmental disorder, serious mental illness and substance abuse. No human subjects were used in this research project. Analysis of the treatment facility was created by reviewing the established requirements constructed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration. This researcher established a best practice treatment facility that incorporates and met all 12 Principles of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration guidelines. This treatment facility was used as standard for the best practice model outlined in this project. This researcher also used an already established treatment facility, Autus in Northern California as example of a treatment facility already established. There is a need for awareness of the lack of information, research on persons with developmental disabilities and treatment facilities. Finalization of this project helped bridge the gap between of lack of awareness and information. The forensic literature review in this project illuminates what the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration deems is a best treatment facility by proposing the structure of such a treatment facility.

Book Design for Mental and Behavioral Health

Download or read book Design for Mental and Behavioral Health written by Mardelle McCuskey Shepley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies confirm that the physical environment influences health outcomes, emotional state, preference, satisfaction and orientation, but very little research has focused on mental and behavioural health settings. This book summarizes design principles and design research for individuals who are intending to design new mental and behavioural health facilities and those wishing to evaluate the quality of their existing facilities. The authors discuss mental and behavioural health systems, design guidelines, design research and existing standards, and provide examples of best practice. As behavioural and mental health populations vary in their needs, the primary focus is limited to environments that support acute care, outpatient and emergency care, residential care, veterans, pediatric patients, and the treatment of chemical dependency.

Book TIP 35  Enhancing Motivation for Change in Substance Use Disorder Treatment  Updated 2019

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.

This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.
