Court Based Interventions: Clinical Considerations Fred Osher, M.D.

Awareness: Consequences of Co-occurring Disorders Increased vulnerability to relapse and rehospitalization More psychotic symptoms Inability to manage finances Housing instability and homelessness Noncompliance with medications and treatment Increased vulnerability to HIV infection and hepatitis

Medical Complications of Co-Occurring Substance Use: HIV and Hepatitis B and C Persons with Substance Use Disorders had 2.95 ( ) increased chance of having HIV 1.74 ( ) increased chance of having HBV 2.42 ( ) chance of having HCV Rosenberg et al., A J Public Health, 2001

Consequences of Co-occurring Disorders (cont.) Lower satisfaction with familial relationships Increased family burden Violence Return to Incarceration Increased depression and suicidality Higher service utilization and costs

Principles of care 1.Integrated treatment 2.Screening, Assessment, and Individualized Treatment Planning 3.Assertiveness 4.Close monitoring 5.Longitudinal perspective 6.Harm reduction 7.Stages of change 8.Stable living situation 9.Cultural competency and consumer centeredness 10.Optimism

1.Integrated treatment Traditional models of treatment for dual disorders results in poor outcomes no treatment -- high utilization of E.R., jails, hospitals sequential treatment parallel treatment -- burden of integration on individual Fragmentation Integrated treatment associated with better outcomes in SMI and perhaps non-SMI

FIDELITY TO DUAL DIAGNOSIS PRINCIPLES

2. Screening, Assessment, and Individualized Treatment Planning Definition: Screening A formal process of testing to determine whether a client does or does not warrant further attention at the current time in regard to a particular disorder and, in this context, the possibility of a co-occurring substance or mental disorder. The screening process for co-occurring disorders (COD) seeks to answer a “yes” or “no” question: Does the substance abuse [or mental health] client being screened show signs of a possible mental health [or substance abuse] problem? Note that the screening process does not necessarily identify what kind of problem the person might have, or how serious it might be, but determines whether or not further assessment is warranted.

2. Screening, Assessment, and Individualized Treatment Planning Definition: Assessment A basic assessment consists of gathering key information and engaging in a process with the client that enables the counselor/therapist to understand the client’s readiness for change, problem areas, COD diagnosis, disabilities, and strengths. An assessment typically involves a clinical examination of the functioning and well-being of the client and includes a number of tests and written and oral exercises. The COD diagnosis is established by referral to a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist. Assessment of the COD client is an ongoing process that should be repeated over time to capture the changing nature of the client’s status.

1. Evaluate pressing needs 2. Determine motivation to address substance use/mental health problems 3. Select target behaviors for change 4. Determine interventions/conditions to achieve desired goals 5. Choose measures to evaluate the intervention 6. Select follow-up times to review the plan. Individualized Treatment Planning - Steps

3.Assertiveness Responsibility of systems to support outreach and engagement services Successful interventions: “go wherever the client is” In-reach to institutional settings work with family, landlords and employers Forensic Assertive Community Treatment (FACT)

4.Close monitoring Intensive supervision needed until stable Sometimes coercive, always persuasive representative payeeship mandatory substance abuse treatment urine testing The essence of court-based interventions

5.Longitudinal perspective Mental health, substance use disorders, and disease are chronic, relapsing conditions Treatment occurs continuously over years Progress measured over time What is the courts role in the recovery trajectory

6.Harm reduction strategies Assume: continuum from abstinence  problematic use  abuse/dependence reducing quantity/frequency of use decreases likelihood of negative consequences Provide alternatives to traditional abstinence only philosophies More likely to engage those who don’t yet have abstinence as a goal Tough concept in drug court context

7.Stages of change Engagement - connecting people to treatment Persuasion - convincing engaged clients to accept treatment Active treatment - range of behavioral, psychoeducational and medical interventions Relapse prevention - prevention and management of relapses

COURSE OF ATTAINING STABLE REMISSION (Drake et al, 1997)

8.Stable living situation Not having a home makes assessment difficult and protracted Range of safe, affordable housing options are necessary safe havens or low demand residences for engagement and persuasion alcohol and drug free housing during active treatment and relapse prevention Separate conditions and treatment from housing Flexibility and tolerance required to retain people in housing

9.Cultural competency and consumer centeredness Seek to understand - don’t assume a shared set of values or impose one’s own Respect cultural differences Value the consumer’s point of view

10.Optimism Critical ingredient for recovery Hope as an antidote to despair Must have courage to connect with the reality of despair Share belief that because the problems are severe, the person deserves help Create a vision of what a hopeful outcome might be Peer supervision and training to bolster staff optimism

Integrating Treatment with Supervision

Transformation: Integrated Public Health- Public Safety Court Strategies (NIDA 2006) Blends functions of criminal justice and treatment systems to optimize outcomes Community- based treatment Opportunity to avoid incarceration or criminal record Close supervision Consequences for noncompliance are certain and immediate

What is the capacity of your community behavioral health providers to serve the target population and willingness to partner with the court diversion efforts? What is the quality of behavioral health services available to the target population? What is the priority given to criminal justice involved clients for community behavioral services?
