Assignment: Scholar Practitioner Project Assignment: Developing an Addiction Treatment Plan
Creating an addiction treatment plan is an individualized dynamic process that begins at the first meeting with the client and evolves throughout the complete course of treatment in response to changing needs. An addiction treatment plan addresses the holistic needs of the individual. It includes the client’s immediate needs while in treatment as well as long-term needs once he or she returns to the community.
For this Assignment review the resources for this week and consider the methods by which helping professionals can develop aftercare plans to prevent relapse.
