Jamie will be in The Unspeakeasy as part of our Unspeakers Series on Aug. 7, 2024. Apply to join The Unspeakeasy now if you want the chance to meet her in a private, off-the-record hangout. “What is happening to scores of children . . . is morally and medically appalling.” Those were the words of Jamie Reed, a former case manager at a gender clinic in a major American children's hospital, when she burst on the scene via a Free Press article in February 2023. Since then, she has become known as the most prominent whistleblower in the effort to put the brakes on medicalized gender transition for kids. In this conversation, Jamie talks about what the last year and a half has been like for her, what the public still needs to understand about this issue, and why doctors and other medical providers are continuing to misrepresent their treatment protocols. She discusses how institutions serving the most vulnerable kids, including foster care systems (where large numbers of kids now identify as trans), have adopted affirmative care models and explains what it's like to Testify before state legislatures about restricting access to non-evidence-based gender-affirming care. As a self-described “queer woman who's married to a transgender person and is politically to the left of Bernie Sanders,” it's the last thing she ever thought she'd be doing. Now it's her life's work. GUEST BIO Jamie Reed is one of the first public whistleblowers from a pediatric gender clinic in the United States and is now the Executive Director and Co-Founder of the LGBT Courage Coalition, an American-based non-profit of LGBT adults seeking to reform youth gender medicine. She has spoken at numerous conferences including Genspect: The Bigger Picture in Colorado, at the International Perspectives on Evidence- Based Treatment for Gender-Dysphoric Youth in New York, and Psychotherapeutic Process with Young People Experiencing Gender Dysphoria in Tampere, Finland. Jamie is a gay woman and foster and adoptive parent of five boys. She holds a Master of Science in Clinical Research from Washington University in St. Louis and a bachelor's degree in Cultural Anthropology. Read the original story in The Free Press here.

This episode focuses on the appropriate and inappropriate treatment when caring for a patient who has been bitten by a venomous snake.---This is episode 1 of the series: Envenomations: Snakes, Lizards, Marine Life, and ArthropodsEnvenomations, particularly snakebites, are common in Southern states, yet most healthcare professionals have little formal training on this subject. Frequently, the medical care provided is inconsistent with established guidelines. There are a variety of common mistakes of both omission and commission. Antivenom is not administered when it is indicated, and antibiotics and surgical interventions are ordered despite the evidence indicating these are unnecessary. Many soft tissue infections are mis-diagnosed as spider bites and hymenoptera stings often receive unnecessary and potentially dangerous treatments.This podcast reviews the pathophysiology, clinical features, and management of various envenomations, including snakebites, scorpion stings, spider bites, hymenoptera stings, bites from venomous lizards and a variety of marine envenomations, including jellyfish stings. Common myths will be dispelled, and learners will be provided with evidence-based treatment guidelines.Nurses may be able to complete an accredited CE activity featuring content from this podcast and earn CE hours provided from Elite Learning by Colibri Healthcare.

The Pharm So Hard Podcast: An Emergency Medicine and Hospital Pharmacy Podcast
The post Episode 101. Aspiration Pneumonia: Antibiotic Stewardship and Evidence-Based Treatment Strategies appeared first on The Pharm So Hard Podcast.
Hour 3 of The Autism Network Podcastathon Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh shares essential information about anxiety, particularly as it relates to autism. Viewer questions are encouraged. Autism expert Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh gives the definitive talk about anxiety as it relates to autism. Anxiety has a great deal to do with a person's ability to cope, learn, and grow. Masking the anxiety is not always the answer. Listen as Dr. Doreen talks about successful ways to treat, and overcome the debilitating side of anxiety, so we can productively get back to learning and living. Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh has dedicated over forty years to helping individuals with autism lead healthy, productive lives. She is licensed as a psychologist in California, Texas, Virginia, Oregon, Colorado, Michigan and Arizona and holds a Certificate of Professional Qualification in Psychology from the Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards. She is a doctoral level Board Certified Behavior Analyst and is licensed as a behavior analyst in Arizona, New York, Nevada, Louisiana and Virginia. Dr. Granpeesheh began her studies in autism as an undergraduate at UCLA earning a bachelor's degree in 1984, and a Master's degree in psychology in 1987, followed by a Ph.D. in psychology from UCLA in 1990. While completing her degrees, Dr. Granpeesheh worked with Dr. Ivar Lovaas on the groundbreaking outcome study published in 1987 which showed a recovery rate of close to 50% among the study's research participants. Dr. Granpeesheh built on Dr. Lovaas's work, developing the CARD Model, which is a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to treating autism. In 1990, Dr. Granpeesheh founded the Center for Autism and Related Disorders, also known as CARD. Under Dr. Granpeesheh's 30 years of leadership, CARD became one of the world's largest providers of ABA-based treatment for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. With over 260 locations throughout the United States and internationally, CARD employed over 6,000 highly skilled professionals, and was a leading employer of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) providing behavioral treatment to thousands of families worldwide. CARD's highly regarded behavior management and skill acquisition programs were the culmination of decades of research in the field of autism treatment. As part of the nation's third largest non-governmental organization contributing to autism research, CARD researchers published groundbreaking studies that contributed significantly to the field of autism treatment research. In 2011, Dr. Granpeesheh founded Autism Research Group, a nonprofit organization whose mission was to identify and conduct treatment research that improves the quality of life for individuals with autism spectrum disorder. To increase access to evidence-based treatment, Dr. Granpeesheh founded Skills™, an innovative web-based platform that optimizes treatment programs for individuals with autism spectrum disorder. Skills™ provides comprehensive assessment and curriculum, positive support planning for challenging behavior, progress tracking, and treatment evaluation. and enables healthcare professionals, teachers, parents, and/or caregivers to design and manage comprehensive, individualized treatment programs for children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder as well as tracking progress in real time by collecting and uploading data electronically. From 1990 to 2019, as CARD's CEO and chief clinician, Dr. Granpeesheh developed extensive state-of-the-art training programs for CARD's clinical employees, parents and caregivers, and school personnel. As demand for CARD training programs increased, Dr. Granpeesheh established the Institute for Behavioral Training which provides web-based and in-person training programs targeting the specific training needs of school districts, parents and caregivers, physicians, and autism treatment providers. Dr. Granpeesheh has been a member of numerous scientific and advisory boards including the US Autism and Asperger's Association, The Autism File Journal, Autism 360-Medigenesis, the 4-A Healing Foundation and the Defeat Autism Now coalition. In addition, Dr. Granpeesheh has served on the National Board of Directors of the Autism Society of America (ASA), the practice board of The Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) as well as the Autism Human Rights and Discrimination Initiative Steering Committee, the Early Intervention Taskforce of the Senate Select Committee on Autism and Related Disorders and the Oversight Committee of the Department of Developmental Disabilities. In 2008, Dr. Granpeesheh produced and co-directed the documentary “Recovered: Journeys through the Autism Spectrum and Back”, a film about 4 children diagnosed with Autism who, after three years of intensive intervention, recovered and now lead productive and healthy lives. This documentary received significant recognition including “Best Documentary” in the Director's Chair Film Festival, official selection in the Victoria Independent Film Festival and special recognition in the ReelHeART International Film Festival of Toronto. As one of the foremost experts in autism diagnosis and treatment, Dr. Granpeesheh has appeared on numerous TV shows including Dr. Phil, the Doctors, Fox and Friends and other notable news segments to shed light on and answer questions regarding autism. In August 2009, her research entitled “Retrospective Analysis of Clinical Records in 38 Cases of Recovery from Autism” was published in the Annals of Clinical Psychiatry, showing that recovery from autism is possible with early, intensive intervention using ABA. This study echoed the results of Dr. Lovaas's earlier study and garnered Dr. Granpeesheh the prestigious George Winokur Clinical Research Award. In 2014, Dr. Granpeesheh co-authored the book Evidence-Based Treatment for Children with Autism, a comprehensive description of the model of treatment she developed over her 30 years of leadership at CARD. She has also authored over 50 peer reviewed publications on subjects concerning the diagnosis and treatment of Autism. In 2015, Dr. Granpeesheh co-authored a series of 4 articles that were published in the prestigious journal Pediatrics. These articles were the culmination of work from several think tanks concerning the early diagnosis and treatment of autism and continue to define the guiding principles of therapeutic process for medical and psychological professionals today. Dr. Granpeesheh is co-founder of The Autism Media Network which hosts “Autism Live”, the number one video podcast in the field of autism education. Since 2012, Dr. Granpeesheh has broadcast the “Dr. Doreen Show” on Autism Live, a weekly interactive web show providing support, resources, information, facts, entertainment, and inspiration to parents, teachers, and practitioners who work with individuals on the autism spectrum. Through the Ask Dr. Doreen Show, hundreds of families have been able to call in or write in and gain immediate guidance on various issues pertaining to their children. In 2022, Autism Media Network launched “Stories from the Spectrum” the first show to be entirely produced, directed by and featuring individuals on the spectrum of autism. In 2020, Dr. Granpeesheh retired as CEO of CARD and continues to contribute to the autism community as founding member and president of Autism Care Today (ACT), a nonprofit organization that she co-founded in 2005. ACT builds awareness and provides grant funding to families struggling with autism. In addition, Dr. Granpeesheh remains a member of the Finance Committee of The Association for Behavior Analysis International, sits on the board of advisors of the Board of Psychology of UCLA, and is a member of the Board of Directors of the Behavioral Health Center of Excellence. In 2020, the Society for the Advancement of Behavior Analysis honored her by establishing the “Doreen Granpeesheh Fund for the Interdisciplinary Approach to the Treatment of Autism”, whose objective is to support educational pursuits that complement the behavioral treatment of autism with knowledge and expertise from related fields and with consideration of the individual as a whole. Dr. Granpeesheh remains committed to improving treatment efficacy by expanding the knowledge of behavior analysts to include a broad understanding of the diagnostic criteria, dietary protocols, and biomedical interventions currently in use for the treatment of autism.

I had a great sit down with Dr. Kimberly Applewhite right before the Holidays where we talked about the importance of connection in a world that too often values individualism. Most of us know by this point that relationships matter to our quality of lives. At the same time navigating interpersonal situations is challenging. So whether you are facing holiday seasons, family get-togethers, or just run-of-the-mill daily living… this is a great episode to help foster emotional and community intelligence. Kimberly Applewhite, PsyD. Is a licensed psychologist at the Utah Center for Evidence Based Treatment. She specializes in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing (MI) for health related stressors. She received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from New York University; and a Masters of Science in School Psychology and Doctorate of Psychology in School-Clinical Child Psychology from the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology at Yeshiva University (APA Accredited). Her graduate school focus was on assessment and treatment of children and families in bio-psycho social-spiritual contexts, as well as treatment of ethnic minorities and LGBTQ+ populations.

We are both proponents of seeking safety as a therapy for people with trauma and substance use. This is a very low barrier treatment for both the therapist or peer support worker to learn AND for the patient to get access to. For myself, when I'm working with people who use drugs, it's a great standalone treatment AND a great gateway therapy to more intensive work. Here are some resources: Seeking Safety https://www.treatment-innovations.org/seeking-safety.html Basic handouts for seeking safety https://www.treatment-innovations.org/uploads/2/5/5/5/25555853/1-4-2022-basic-handouts-for-ppl-without-books.pdf Here is a video where Dr. Lisa covers the basics https://youtu.be/3yaDgYEZB3I Here is a video where an educator covers the basics https://youtu.be/Zdb3D4MyCoY A very well done talk on seeking safety Implementation https://youtu.be/qNNvDl3XTII Featuring addiction psychiatrist Dr. Wiplove (Wip) Lamba, addictions case manager and former addict Jean-Paul (JP) Michael, along with their guests discuss all things related to substance use, addiction, addiction medicine, psychotherapy, harm reduction, treatment and recovery.

Recent advances in multiple myeloma (MM) management present a rare opportunity for clinicians, who now have a variety of options to choose from when optimizing patient care. From this starting point, hematology-oncology professionals (including those practicing in community settings) and oncology nurses can leverage the potency of novel therapeutics, including platforms based on CD38 antibodies and novel BCMA-directed therapies, across the spectrum of disease. In this unique program, an interprofessional panel, featuring an academic and community hematologist-oncologist and a nurse professional, will use a series of case-based conversations to demonstrate exactly how to support the MM patient's therapeutic odyssey with innovative therapeutics—and deliver high-quality, collaborative patient care. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Apply current evidence and guidelines for the personalized selection of upfront therapy with novel triplets, quadruplets, and maintenance options for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM), including those with transplant-eligible or -ineligible disease, Plan for appropriate sequential treatment options in patients with MM relapsing after 1-3 prior lines of therapy or for those with more heavily pretreated disease, Provide team-based counseling for patients with MM about relevant prognostic factors, high-risk features, sequential management plans, treatment administration and delivery, and drug safety considerations, Develop team-based management strategies for adverse events associated with the use of modern MM treatment regimens, including those containing novel antibody, proteasome inhibitor, and targeted components.

Each day, more than 130 people die from opioid overdoses. Opioids are a class of drugs that include prescription pain relievers like oxycodone. They also include illegal drugs like heroin. In 2019, 1.6 million Americans had an opioid addiction. This is also known as opioid use disorder. Yet effective medications—like buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone—are prescribed to only a fraction of people with opioid use disorder. Patients often receive such medications in an opioid treatment program. Methadone, for example, can only be given in a certified treatment program. Primary care physicians can apply for a waiver to prescribe buprenorphine. However, less than 10% of U.S. primary care providers have a buprenorphine waiver. Given the limited number of patients that each physician can treat, involving pharmacists in opioid treatment may improve access. The Doctor Patient Forum's Mission Statement is to advocate, educate, and defend the rights of patients, to protect all providers (including prescribers and pharmacists) who tirelessly work to treat their patients, and to bring awareness to the general public regarding restrictions upon medical providers. We are fighting for a return to individualized patient care instead of using guidelines and laws based on little evidence using arbitrary thresholds. Contrary to what has been said, we are not “industry funded.” We haven't taken any money from pharma. We are not being paid to promote opioids. We are simply chronic pain and illness patients who are fighting as hard as we can to effect change in this broken system where the patient's voice is non-existent. For part 4 of the series, we're honored to have Ms. Bev Schechtman. Ms. Schectman is one of the founding members of Don't Punish Pain Rally and is the VP of The Doctor Patient Forum. She grew up in northern New Jersey, and has lived in the Raleigh area in North Carolina since 2009. Bev has been married to Randy for 18 years, and has two teenage daughters, Emma, 17, and Livvy,13. She also has a 3-year-old Aussidoodle, Griffin. Bev has been living with Crohn's Disease and Psoriatic Arthritis for over two decades. She first contacted Claudia Merandi after being denied opioid medication while hospitalized for kidney stones in 2017.She was denied due to being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Bev is a passionate advocate for people with chronic pain and illness as well as those who have PTSD/ survived sexual assault/abuse. Bev has her B.A. in Psychology and hopes to get her M.S.W. in the near future. Bev is a voracious reader and researcher. She is passionate about understanding why pain patients are being mistreated so she can educate other patients and empower them to fight back. Bev hopes her advocacy work brings awareness to the anti-opioid zealots who are profiting off of punishing pain patients while pretending to care about those with addiction. She also believes strongly in Harm Reduction efforts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Psychology of Self-Injury: Exploring Self-Harm & Mental Health
A lot of therapies address the context in which nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and self-harm may occur, but only a few treatments have been designed to address NSSI specifically. In this episode, we dive into one of these treatments: Treatment for Self-Injurious Behaviors (T-SIB). Dr. Peggy Andover, its lead developer, walks us through the 9 sessions of T-SIB, including the personalized modules of sessions 7 & 8.Learn more about Dr. Andover and her work in the Mood and Behaviors Lab at https://www.fordham.edu/info/23638/mood_and_behaviors_lab and reach her at andover@fordham.edu.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.11.15.383448v1?rss=1 Authors: Lin, F. P. Abstract: BACKGROUND: The advances in genome sequencing technologies have provided new opportunities for delivering targeted therapy to patients with advanced cancer. However, these high-throughput assays have also created a multitude of challenges for oncologists in treatment selection, demanding a new approach to support decision-making in clinics. METHODS: To address this unmet need, this paper describes the design of a symbolic reasoning framework using the method of hierarchical task analysis. Based on this framework, an evidence-based treatment recommendation system was implemented for supporting decision-making based on a patient's clinicopathologic and biomarker profiles. RESULTS: This intelligent framework captures a six-step sequential decision process: (1) concept expansion by ontology matching, (2) evidence matching, (3) evidence grading and value-based prioritisation, (4) clinical hypothesis generation, (5) recommendation ranking, and (6) recommendation filtering. The importance of balancing evidence-based and hypothesis-driven treatment recommendations is also highlighted. Of note, tracking history of inference has emerged to be a critical step to allow rational prioritisation of recommendations. The concept of inference tracking also enables the derivation of a novel measure -- level of matching -- that helps to convey whether a treatment recommendation is drawn from incomplete knowledge during the reasoning process. CONCLUSIONS: This framework systematically encapsulates oncologist's treatment decision-making process. Further evaluations in prospective clinical studies are warranted to demonstrate how this computational pipeline can be integrated into oncology practice to improve outcomes.

In today’s episode of Sundays With Stories, Stanton and Zach discuss current events. This week a New York Times article bemoaned the failure of addiction specialists to adopt a proven tool for treating drug addiction, “contingency management.” That is, paying meth, cocaine et al. users for abstinence. That’s right: experienced, one might say addicted, “speed” (“crank”) users will desist drug use if you give them money — and not colossal sums at that. This has been Carl Hart’s research with meth, and the University of Vermont group’s under Warren Bickle with cocaine. The same benefits of providing alternative rewards have been shown in Bruce Alexander’s Rat Park and the Baltimore City Hospital group’s research with street drinkers. What does this tell us? That drug and alcohol addiction is not a runaway train resistant to environmental factors and rewards. Which is useful to know. However, Zach and Stanton question who is creating these rewards. There is a bit of science-gone-amok to the image of men in white coats divvying out money for drug and alcohol users, even those with the worst usage patterns, to be “good.” And what happens when the rewards, the gravy train, stops? You tell us. But Harvard’s Global Anti-Tobacco Program offered a hint. While investigating the effectiveness of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) for those who quit smoking, the program’s chief investigators found that, in the long run, those who quit on their own did as well as, or better than, those who rely on NRT. In fact, the most addicted smokers were the worst at keeping off the drug using NRT. This finding held true even though NRT was “proven effective in the laboratory.” Zach and Stanton then speak of people managing their own contingencies. That is, their finding real-world reasons to quit or cut back their addictions. Most important of all (with a nod to Steve Slate et al.’s Freedom Model”) is people’s belief that they can control their own drug use and lives. This thinking belies NIDA Director Nora Volkow’s 2007 unwise piece “Addiction Is a Disease of Free Will” — which, per Stanton’s urging, Volkow seems to be abandoning. What is she replacing this ill-conceived notion with? What Stanton and Zach practice in their Life Process Program: creating lives worth living and worlds people want to occupy. This is a tough task. But, once again, including a review of America’s ill-fated (drug deaths are ramping out of control) enthusiasm for medicine-assisted treatment for opioid addiction, there is no long-term alternative. Finally, Zach reviews SMART Recovery’s belated shift to “abstinence from addiction” in place of its former “desist all use” basis — as the user chooses. They agree in their admiration for Tom Horvath/SMART Recovery’s remarkable success at creating an alternative to AA. At the same time, they embrace SMART’s long-awaited and necessary shift to Harm Reduction. Stanton and Zach end their podcast by wondering how decades of addiction research and both positive and negative experiences with drugs have left even our “advanced guard” (i.e., policy reformists like the Ethan Nadelmann-founded DPA) so shorn of an appreciation for the interchange between people’s lived experience (their actual lives) and addiction. Come join Stanton and Zach as they reveal a little secret. That is, the best science, policy, and treatment involve common sense. At the same time, they say, free yourself from decades-old failed thinking. - - - - - - - - - - LPP MAIN WEB SITE http://LifeProcessProgram.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lifeprocessprogram/message

George Floyd’s death — as just the latest example of a black person dying at the hands of law enforcement — has shaken, angered, agitated and, some say, awakened the nation, setting off waves of sometimes-violent protests against racism and police brutality. Days later, Russell M. Nelson, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a faith with its own racist history, took to social media, condemning prejudice, calling racists to repentance and decrying the lawlessness that has erupted. Two African American Latter-day Saints join this week’s “Mormon Land” podcast to discuss systemic racism, protests and the church’s delayed response. Both LaShawn Williams, an assistant professor of social work at Utah Valley University, and Kimberly Applewhite, a psychologist with the Utah Center for Evidence Based Treatment, say society, the nation, their church and individuals can and must do more to wipe out the sin of racism.

In the field of Couples Therapy there has been very little research on gay couples. Fortunately, more and more is being done all of the time. It is important for Couples Therapists to be educated on this research and also understand how they can communicate in a way that is inclusive. This episode was with Alapaki Yee and Salvatore Garanzini, the founders of the Gay Couples Institute with locations in San Francisco, San Diego, and New York. They created the institute because they disagreed with many of the things their gay and lesbian friends were being told in their own relationship therapy that were not based on any research. They both have advanced training in the Gottman method and Salvatore is a Certified Gottman Therapist. They continue to do research and are at the forefront of what is working in couples therapy. Please, please, please read the article below about their work!!! The Couples Therapist Couch is the podcast for Couples Therapists about the practice of couples therapy. The host, Shane Birkel, interviews an expert in the field of couples therapy each week. There is an episode released every Tuesday. Please rate and subscribe to the podcast for more great episodes!

When I was married to a good man suffering from this disease, I went to the bookstore on a regular basis looking for books about how to help my husband get sober. What I found was tons of stories and memoirs about brave men and women who have struggled with addiction and found a way to get sober. But there were no stories about the women who loved them. So late one night when I was in the bookstore, I made a promise to God that if I ever found the answers, I would spend the rest of my life teaching other women. And that’s exactly what I have been doing for over six years. My three online, do-at-your-own-pace programs are designed just for wives, girlfriends, and mothers who love someone who suffers from alcoholism or substance abuse. Today we are going to talk about something a little bit different: rehabilitation. I get asked questions like, "Does rehab really work?" and "What makes a good rehab?" all the time. But before I tell you the top ten things you need to know about rehab, I want to share my experience with getting my ex-husband into a rehabilitation program. I go more into detail about it in the Love Over Mistakes program, but I'll keep this story short. Several years ago, at one of my many trips to the bookstore, I came across a book written by a man who started his own fancy rehab center based on extensive research. His approach was dramatically different than most 12-step rehabs, and there was something very persuasive about his writing. The more I read his book, the more I was convinced that I needed to get my husband to Malibu so he could experience the breakthrough this author was promising. I spent days dreaming of what it would be like to have him sober for good. How he would be the loving, supportive husband I always knew he could be. My children would finally get the engaged dad who was sober and loving all the time. Our vacations and holidays would not be centered around his next drink. But there was an issue: this rehab cost $60,000. We were in our twenties at the time and coming up with that kind of money seemed impossible because we lived paycheck to paycheck. I called our health insurance agency, and they told me they would pay for some of it. Then I called our family and my father kindly offered to take out a second mortgage on his apartment. I drained our bank account, plus his family agreed to pay a portion as well. After a month of planning, the money was there. Now it was time to fill him in. I planned on hosting an intervention, but (since God had a better idea) the night before our intervention was going to take place, he overdosed on drugs. I’m not sure what kind of drugs he took, but he came into my bedroom and was talking really fast and acting crazy. I’ve never seen anything like it. He had always done his drugs away from the house. It scared me to the core. I was watching a stranger in my bedroom who had absolutely no resemblance to the man I married. I prayed that the kids would stay asleep so they would not witness his paranoid behavior and hours later he settled down. I told him that we had planned for him to leave, take a month off of work, and attend a rehab. That everything had been taken care of for him. I didn’t know how he would react and I was prepared for the worst. But then he looked at me and said he was tired of living like this. He agreed to go just four hours before his scheduled flight to the rehab center. Like I said, I go more into what happened in the next month in the Love Over Mistakes program. But for now, I want to share with you the top ten tips that you will find helpful when considering rehabs. I wish I had these tips all those years ago. He will NOT lose his job if he goes to rehab. The Americans with Disabilities Act and the Family Medical Leave Act guarantee that addicts and alcoholics who wish to undergo treatment for substance abuse will be given the time they need to do so by their employers and that their jobs will be saved for them while they are away. These laws do not guarantee a paycheck while they are gone. Some employers will pay a certain percentage of their paycheck, some will not. Rehab success rates can be misleading. According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, the rehab community claims a 30% success rate, but they only count people who complete the programs. 70-80% have dropped out within 3-6 months. I am not sharing these numbers to discourage you or put down the rehab industry. But if you're thinking, like I did, that just getting them to rehab will be the solution, you might need to adjust your expectations. 12-step programs are usually part of the aftercare suggestions. Eventually, your partner will be encouraged by the rehab to attend a 12-step aftercare program. If he or she attended rehab and graduated, but doesn’t feel comfortable attending 12-step, higher-power programs on a consistent basis, they don't have a lot of other choices for aftercare treatment other than therapy. Many rehabs don’t follow up with alumni. Once you graduate from the program, you’re pretty much on your own. Of the rehabs that I know of, most do a decent job of trying to suggest ways to manage your aftercare. But when you walk out those doors, it’s up to your loved one to work their own recovery. Look for a rehab that practices EBT. EBT stands for Evidence-Based Treatment. 12-step programs have saved many lives, but studies have shown that we need to also include a medical model for treatment. A medical model includes an assessment from a psychologist or psychiatrist who is trained in addiction medicine, an intervention, therapy, psychopharmacology (a fancy word that means medication), and an inpatient program or outpatient program that offers quality care. You can go to the American Society of Addiction Medicine for a directory. Rehab is expensive. Even non-profit rehabs usually cost over $20,000 for 30 days. Recovery information you read on the internet is often published by a rehab, not a research-based institute. If you’re on a website reading about addiction and they have a 1-800 number or any ads for a rehab, chances are, the website is published by a rehab. I’m not saying there isn’t good information out there on the internet to read about addiction but know the source. Sometimes what looks like well-written articles are just marketing websites. They might tell you relapse is part of his recovery. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, a government-funded program, relapse in addiction resembles relapse in other chronic diseases. You may have heard people compare the disease of addiction to diabetes. Well, if you're a type-1 diabetic and you’re getting successful treatment, you have a 30-50% chance of relapse. If you suffer from addiction you have a 40-60% chance of relapse. If you suffer from asthma, your chances of relapse are even greater at 50-70%. Just because they attend rehab, doesn't mean there isn't a good chance they will relapse just like any other chronic disease. When that happens, we don’t need to think of it as a failure. Rather, a treatment needs to be reinstated or readjusted or another treatment needs to be introduced. You need to recover too. You have been hurt, damaged, and lied to by this disease. Getting your loved one help is good. But if he or she refuses or agrees, you need to find support and answers too. If you’re anything like me, when my ex-husband went to rehab, I was left feeling lonely, angry, and worried. I needed to work my own program and get educated on what I needed to do when he came back. If you’re interested and you want to learn about our online, do-at-your-own-pace programs, you can click here. If they don’t want help, you won't be able to change their heart. I know that’s hard to hear, but if you really want them to get sober, they have to want it too. However, you don’t need to wait for them to get sober for you to start to feel better. You can take control of your decisions and reactions and your recovery. I believe in you. You’re not powerless over this disease. You don’t need to wait for them to get sober to start to feel better. We are in this together. P.S. I hope you will join me in one of our programs. You have lifetime access, they are private and confidential, and, remember - you need recovery if he gets sober or not.

Manik Bhat is the CEO and cofounder of Healthify. After spending time connecting patients to social services in the Baltimore community and dealing with the poor state of affairs in managing a patient's social needs, he decided to start Healthify to improve the status quo. Manik hopes to change the way we coordinate around an individual's social needs and prove that addressing social determinants is not only the morally just thing to do but is also the fiscally responsible thing to do in the era of value.

Our first CE, “Early Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Tube Dislodgment,” presents a real case of PEG tube dislodgement and subsequent sepsis leading to the patient’s death. Our second CE, “Epilepsy Update Part 2: Nursing Care and Evidence-Based Treatment,” addresses the most important aspects of assessing and caring for patients with epilepsy. The feature article “Cultivating Quality: Cultivating Mindfulness to Enhance Nursing Practice” describes a multifaceted mindfulness program introduced for members of a nursing team. And our “Culturally Competent Care: Using the ESFT Model in Nursing” article discusses the need for nurses to communicate effectively with diverse populations and how health care disparities can be reduced through culturally competent care. In addition, there’s News, Reflections, Drug Watch, Art of Nursing, and more.
