Virtual One-day ASAM Criteria Treatment Planning Training
About the event
This application-focused workshop offers a practical approach to individualized treatment planning within the context of the Fourth Edition of the ASAM Criteria. Participants will understand the relationship between the treatment plan and the use of admission, continued stay, and transition criteria. In addition, participants will learn how to write measurable, individualized treatment plans based on the Dimensional Drivers and individualized needs and preferences of the person served.
Participants will also have the opportunity to explore ways in which the patient’s stage of change impacts and drives a person-centered treatment plan and a cursory review of core motivational interviewing skills for treatment planning conversations, shared-decision making and to support readiness for and engagement in treatment.
