Participation in a parent training program for methadone clients

Article Abstract:

A treatment participation model that uses both individual and program-specific factors that influence dropout rates in drug withdrawal treatment helps illustrate that persistent use of marijuana, introduction to heroin late in life and strong behavioral indicators of desire to abstain from drug abuse are prominent indicators of program participation. To improve on previous studies focussed on dichotomous factors of dropout or number of sessions attended, this model of treatment includes illustrations of treatment participation based on therapist ratings.

One-year outcome of an integrative inpatient treatment for dual diagnosis patients

Article Abstract:

An integrative inpatient programme could be an effective treatment venue for patients with a dual diagnosis of either alcohol use disorder or drug use disorder and psychiatric symptoms. This applies particularly to dual diagnosis patients who are homeless or unemployed. Extended inpatient treatment could assist in establishing participation in mental health care programmes. Patients involved in an integrative inpatient programme showed improvements in psychosocial functioning despite similar frequencies of substance use at intake and at follow-up.
