Treatment Basics

Featuring interviews with both experts and people who have experienced treatment themselves, Treatment Basics gives clients and their loved ones a better understanding of what to expect throughout substance use disorder treatment.

Created to work with both adults and young adults, this engaging video includes the following chapters: - 1. Do I Need Help?
- 2. What Kind of Help Is Available?
- 3. What Will Withdrawal Be Like?
- 4. How Can I Be Successful in Treatment?
- 5. How Do I Take Care of Myself While My Loved One Is in Treatment?
- 6. How Can I Support My Loved One in Treatment?
This video can complement an existing curriculum, or each chapter can be used independently. The accompanying flash drive contains a facilitator guide--which includes background information, preparation instructions, discussion questions, and additional activities-and client fact sheets to create dynamic learning sessions in either one-on-one or group settings.

Treatment Basics is ideal for use in a variety of settings, including in interventions, primary care settings, correctional settings, educational settings, community groups, and therapeutic settings focused on substance use disorder treatment.
