6 Multi-dimensional Clinically & outcome driven Variable length of service Clarifying goals Focusing on treatment outcomes ASAM s definition of addiction Not based on diagnosis alone Does not justify entering a certain modality or intensity Holistic Addresses multiple needs, as well as clinical and functional dimensions Addresses six (6) defined dimensions Determined in intake and assessment 6

7 Discharge date determined at admission Treatment plan is virtually identical to other clients Five to nine problems are listed with 3 5 objectives, interventions or strategies Treatment plan still being developed five or more days after admission Use terms like must complete the program or the full program PLAN of DAP or SOAP states Continue current course of treatment Treatment plan is preprinted Same numbers in more than one chart (14 sessions) Assessment document does not sync with treatment goals Progress notes are duplicated for group members Individualized Severity of illness Level of functioning Response to treatment, progress and outcomes 7

9 Addiction is a primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation, memory, and related circuitry. Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social, and spiritual manifestations. This is reflected in an individual pathologically pursuing reward and/or relief by substance use and other behaviors. Addiction is characterized by inability to consistently abstain, impairment in behavioral control, craving, diminished recognition of significant problems with one s behaviors in interpersonal relationships, and a dysfunctional emotional response. Like other chronic diseases, addiction often involves cycles of relapse in remission. Without treatment or engagement in recovery activities, addiction is progressive and can result in disability or premature death. Treatment follows theory Disease concept, public health perspective, behaviorist view, psychiatric theory Biopsychosocial perspective Etiology, expression and treatment Productive integration from all theories Individualized treatment Patient/ participant assessment, problems/priorities, plan, progress Treatment follows assessment 9

15 SYMPTOMS SYM Notes early substance misuse Higher scores indicate negative consequences from misuse Individuals will evaluate their consumption as normal defined by family of origin and peers Clarifies amount of structure needed Obvious Attributes OAT Notes personality characteristics e.g. frustration tolerance, compulsivity, level of patience Indicates openness of individual to receive feedback Determination of internal versus external locus of control Clarifies if individual is an appropriate referral for group services 15

16 Subtle Attributes SAT Notes centrality of substance misuse in the individual s life Indicates capability of insight in regard to substance misuse, being able to link misuse and consequences Determination of therapeutic approach (e.g. cognitive therapy versus addressing affective issues Clarifies if responses are an attempt at impression management, or if further screening for an anxiety disorder is warranted Defensive ness DEF Notes direction of pain (externalized versus internalized) Indicates capacity of insight and need to defend as well of fear of being judged. May point to situational issues (e.g. job jeopardy, legal issues, child custody, etc.) Clarifies if therapeutic approach is one of avoiding expert trap, versus evaluating hopelessness, anhedonia, mood disorder, or suicidal tendencies 16

17 Supplemental Addiction Measure SAM Secondary scale for defensiveness Indicates presence of secrets (can be non substance related) Expectation of shame regarding secrets Therapeutic approach follows building trust and rapport, as well as addressing precontemplation and contemplation regarding issues of shame Family versus Control FAM Not a clinical scale Identifies self centeredness as opposed to a need to be a caretaker for others Depending on scores, use of an additional instrument (MILLON, or MMPI) may be indicated Determines direction of therapeutic approach (e.g. reading social cues, boundary issues, assertiveness training, development of empathy, etc.) 17

18 Corrections COR Not a clinical scale Identifies tendency to break rules, which determines level of legal supervision, and/or treatment structure Depending on score, primary services may focus on social/behavioral interventions and behavioral management strategies Determines therapeutic approach (e.g. impulse control, social skills development, addressing frustration tolerance, sensation seeking, etc.) 18

21 Rachel Connor-Synopsis of SASSI Scales FVA, FVOD The client self-reported a high (12) number of experiences of misuse of alcohol, and a moderately low (4) number of experiences of misuse of drugs other than alcohol. Drug-Of-Choice What the client self-reported indicates that the client s drug of choice has been alcohol. SYM The client also self-reported a high (8) number of symptoms of substance abuse. Individuals who score this high on the self-report scales usually have experienced the use of substances to cope, negative experiences of their use, and loss of control. This client s profile indicates that the client probably is (or was) part of a social system that promotes substance use. Such enabling social systems frequently are dominated by someone s substance use (a parent s, spouse s, friend s, or the client s own use). Members of such social systems often become so accustomed to such a lifestyle that the substance abuse and associated behaviors are considered to be normal. This client might benefit by a discussion of what is normal and a program which helps the client believe that life without substance use is possible and preferable. High COR The client s profile is predictive of risk of getting into trouble. The client might have a tendency to offend others, defy authorities and rules, lack social skills, have problems with anger, or be impulsive. Combined High SYM and High COR The client might benefit from a program which helps the client clarify long-term goals, and modify daily/weekly/monthly routines in light of those goals (increase ability to delay immediate gratification in order to obtain greater payoff later). The client is likely to need program structure clear contracts, monitoring, and accountability. Low FAM This client is apt to be so self-absorbed that the client gives little consideration to the needs of others. The client might be assertive to an extreme - quick to stand up for self, impatient and intolerant with others. The client might benefit from treatment which includes opportunities for others (family members, for example) to share their feelings and grievances, development of victim empathy, and opportunities to give to others (including restitution and apologies).
