Description

Module 2 focuses on crisis management and ethics. It outlines the stages of crisis management, from assessment through intervention, and details the common crises faced by patients with SUDS/COD, such as self-harm, substance use during treatment, psychiatric decompensation, early treatment departure, domestic violence, and significant life losses. The module also focuses on immediate and ongoing responses to crises, including treatment planning post-crisis. This training emphasizes the importance of ethics in addiction treatment, exploring formal Codes of Ethics, decision-making models, and the concepts of cultural competence, humility, responsiveness, and integration. Finally, it discusses professionalism in behavior towards patients, families, colleagues, and the broader community, underscoring the ethical obligation for self-reflection and action to provide culturally competent care.
