Substance use is associated with physical and emotional health problems, alcohol-related traffic crashes, alcohol- and drug-impaired driving, accidents and violence. Addiction professionals can identify and intervene early before substance use results in adverse consequences or they become alcohol or drug dependent. SBI uses a brief, valid, scientific, screening (five minutes or less) to identify whether substance use places an individual at risk for negative consequences. Depending on the results from the screening questions, the addiction professional may provide health education, simple advice, motivational counseling, help with an action plan or a referral for treatment.
Registration for the NAADAC 2013 Annual Post-Conference includes a post-conference session, continental breakfast and breaks.
Maximum CEs for October 15: six hours
