Person-Centered Services: What Do You Really Mean and Walking the Talk
Keynote and Breakout Session
Description
The person who should know most about their treatment plan is the client. It is their life, and they are the ones who should be working the hardest on their treatment plan. However it is easy to talk about person-centered services, but not fully appreciate what that looks like and to walk the talk. Some clients are not even aware of what is on their treatment plan; or is basically "doing time" rather than "doing treatment."
Clinicians struggle with how to focus and target treatment; how to change old ways of documentation to reflect person-centered treatment, and how to effectively engage the people into a collaborative and accountable treatment plan.
This workshop will improve participants’ knowledge in providing person-centered services. It will provide the opportunity to practice assessment and priority identification, and translate that into a workable, accountable treatment plan that makes sense to the client. Reference will be made to The ASAM Criteria assessment dimensions to help organize assessment and treatment data.
