Book excerpt: Intensive Outpatient Treatment for the Addictions provides descriptions, discussions, and the first outcome evaluations of the new intensive outpatient treatment modality. Giving you a general history and discussion of key principles; detailed descriptions of program procedures and follow-up data; a study of the characteristics of outcomes of early dropouts; and a comparison between intensive outpatient programs and traditional programs, this book will help government, HMO, and other substance abuse treatment planners and managers in designing the structure and services within their treatment delivery systems. Based on clinical observations and reports, intensive outpatient treatment approaches have quickly become common, even preferred, practice. This speedy acceptance occurred, however, without accompanying research evaluation and support. Intensive Outpatient Treatment for the Addictions provides the evaluation of results and the descriptions of principles and procedures you need to understand and conduct intensive outpatient treatment. Inside this resource you?ll find: a randomized controlled comparison of intensive outpatient treatment and individual counseling a comparison of the outcome of six intensive outpatient treatment and ten traditional programs an assessment of readiness for change stage in relation to improvement as measured by the Addiction Severity Index treatment evaluation methodology outcomes of substance abuse treatment Rather than question whether intensive outpatient treatment is better than traditional treatment, however, the important issue for further research is more likely to be which patients do better in which modalities. Intensive Outpatient Treatment for the Addictions allows you to help your patients by showing you how to design and provide the treatment delivery system that will be most effective.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, Substance Abuse: Administrative Issues in Outpatient Treatment, and its companion text, Substance Abuse: Clinical Issues in Intensive Outpatient Treatment, revisit the subject matter of TIP 8, Intensive Outpatient Treatment for Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse, published in 1994 (CSAT 1994). When TIP 8 was published, one slender volume, barely more than 100 pages long, sufficed to cover intensive outpatient treatment (IOT). The same task today requires two volumes, each of which is devoted to a distinct audience (administrators and clinicians) and is longer than the single, original volume. The primary audience for this TIP is administrators of outpatient substance abuse treatment programs. A few words about this audience are in order. Whereas TIP 8 addressed intensive outpatient treatment, the current TIP drops the word "intensive" from its title because the consensus panel hopes that this TIP will find an audience beyond administrators of IOT programs. Most of the concepts and guidelines...

Book Substance Abuse  Administrative Issues in Outpatient Treatment  TIP 46

Download or read book Substance Abuse Administrative Issues in Outpatient Treatment TIP 46 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 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary audience for this TIP is administrators of outpatient substance abuse treatment programs. A few words about this audience are in order. Whereas TIP 8 addressed intensive outpatient treatment, the current TIP drops the word "intensive" from its title because the consensus panel hopes that this TIP will find an audience beyond administrators of IOT programs. Most of the concepts and guidelines included in this TIP apply to the administration of all substance abuse outpatient treatment (OT) programs. On those rare occasions when information applies only to IOT programs, the authors have been sure to make this clear. Although the term "administrator" is used most often to describe the audience for this book, the terms "executive" and "director" appear as well and are used interchangeably with administrator. These overlapping terms emphasize the varied roles and responsibilities that administrators assume.

Book Bridging the Gap Between Practice and Research

Download or read book Bridging the Gap Between Practice and Research written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-08-11 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, most substance abuse treatment is administered by community-based organizations. If providers could readily incorporate the most recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of addiction and treatment, the treatment would be much more effective and efficient. The gap between research findings and everyday treatment practice represents an enormous missed opportunity at this exciting time in this field. Informed by real-life experiences in addiction treatment including workshops and site visits, Bridging the Gap Between Practice and Research examines why research remains remote from treatment and makes specific recommendations to community providers, federal and state agencies, and other decision-makers. The book outlines concrete strategies for building and disseminating knowledge about addiction; for linking research, policy development, and everyday treatment implementation; and for helping drug treatment consumers become more informed advocates. In candid language, the committee discusses the policy barriers and the human attitudesâ€"the stigma, suspicion, and skepticismâ€"that often hinder progress in addiction treatment. The book identifies the obstacles to effective collaboration among the research, treatment, and policy sectors; evaluates models to address these barriers; and looks in detail at the issue from the perspective of the community-based provider and the researcher.

Book Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment  a Research Based Guide

Download or read book Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment a Research Based Guide written by National Drug Abuse (NIDA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-28 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug addiction is a complex illness. It is characterized by intense and, at times, uncontrollable drug craving, along with compulsive drug seeking and use that persist even in the face of devastating consequences. This update of the National Institute on Drug Abuse's Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment is intended to address addiction to a wide variety of drugs, including nicotine, alcohol, and illicit and prescription drugs. It is designed to serve as a resource for healthcare providers, family members, and other stakeholders trying to address the myriad problems faced by patients in need of treatment for drug abuse or addiction. Addiction affects multiple brain circuits, including those involved in reward and motivation, learning and memory, and inhibitory control over behavior. That is why addiction is a brain disease. Some individuals are more vulnerable than others to becoming addicted, depending on the interplay between genetic makeup, age of exposure to drugs, and other environmental influences. While a person initially chooses to take drugs, over time the effects of prolonged exposure on brain functioning compromise that ability to choose, and seeking and consuming the drug become compulsive, often eluding a person's self-control or willpower. But addiction is more than just compulsive drug taking-it can also produce far reaching health and social consequences. For example, drug abuse and addiction increase a person's risk for a variety of other mental and physical illnesses related to a drug-abusing lifestyle or the toxic effects of the drugs themselves. Additionally, the dysfunctional behaviors that result from drug abuse can interfere with a person's normal functioning in the family, the workplace, and the broader community. Because drug abuse and addiction have so many dimensions and disrupt so many aspects of an individual's life, treatment is not simple. Effective treatment programs typically incorporate many components, each directed to a particular aspect of the illness and its consequences. Addiction treatment must help the individual stop using drugs, maintain a drug-free lifestyle, and achieve productive functioning in the family, at work, and in society. Because addiction is a disease, most people cannot simply stop using drugs for a few days and be cured. Patients typically require long-term or repeated episodes of care to achieve the ultimate goal of sustained abstinence and recovery of their lives. Indeed, scientific research and clinical practice demonstrate the value of continuing care in treating addiction, with a variety of approaches having been tested and integrated in residential and community settings.
