DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Integrated Intervention Planner Drug abuse and addiction are very complex disorders requiring multimodal treatment alternatives. Many of these addicted individuals also suffer from mental health, occupational, health, and/or social problems that make their addictive disorders much more difficult to treat. Even if there are few associated dual problems, the severity of the addiction itself ranges widely among the general population. Because of addiction's complexity and pervasive consequences, addiction treatment programs must take an Integrated Intervention approach. This coordinated effort provides for a comprehensive range of integrated services including counseling, case management, medications, housing, vocational rehabilitation, social skills training, as well as, family interventions that are modified to include both diagnosis. It is, therefore, the intent of the Intervention Planner to assist the clinical professional in writing inventive, individually tailored intervention treatment plans. Through the use of the Intervention Planner you will enhance the clarity, precision, and vividness of your reports. The planner will also help in the following areas:* It serves as a guide to help organize your thoughts when writing, to ensure that you have addressed all of the relevant topics.* It can structure a report to make certain that you haven't missed anything of importance.* It can suggest individual goals, objectives and therapeutic interventions to help personalize a report or description.* Also, the planner is organized in a manner that you can actually do a mini-mental status examination by selecting from the offered questions. Finally, use of the Intervention Planner will assist the clinically competent professional in carrying out his/her report writing tasks and at the same time making sure that they are writing better, more comprehensive reports.
