The purpose of this assignment is to investigate and present the specific processes and offerings of an adolescent substance abuse treatment facility, utilizing the SAMHSA Treatment Locator. This will involve exploring eligibility determinations, treatment settings, modalities, family involvement, and discharge planning, compiling findings into a comprehensive PowerPoint presentation. NOTE: Although it is preferred that this facility be located near you, it is permissible to expand your search beyond your area if you are having trouble finding a facility. Call or visit this treatment facility and inquire about the following: What is their process for determining eligibility for treatment of adolescents? What specific screening or assessment tools do they use to help make this determination? How do they determine when an adolescent is ineligible or inappropriate for their services? What is the process for making referrals to other facilities when an adolescent is determined to be ineligible/inappropriate? What are the treatment settings (e.g., inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization) that they offer? What are the differences between treatment settings and what criteria are used to determine what is most appropriate for adolescents? What kind of staff are involved in the treatment provided at this facility (e.g., psychiatrists, therapists, nurses, peer support specialists)? What are the treatment modalities (e.g., groups, individual/family therapy, medication management) that they offer? What are the differences between these modalities and what criteria are used to determine what is most appropriate for adolescents? What are specific therapeutic techniques and interventions that they use with adolescents (e.g., motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care)? What is the role of the adolescent’s family while they are receiving treatment at this facility? How involved is the family encouraged to be during this process? Are family members offered resources to enhance their understanding and support of the adolescent receiving treatment? If so, what are example resources that they offer families? What is the discharge process for adolescents? How do they determine when an adolescent is ready to be discharged? What kind of referrals do they make when an adolescent is being discharged and what is the referral process?
