  2. “Drug addiction is a brain disease that can be treated” Quote from Nora D. Volkow, M.D., Director of NIDA

  3. What is drug addiction? Addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences. It is considered a brain disease because drugs change the brain—they change its structure and how it works. These brain changes can be long lasting, and can lead to the harmful behaviors seen in people who abuse drugs.

  13. Recovery Oriented Systems of Care The movement from an acute care model of service delivery to a chronic care model

  14. Recovery Oriented Systems of Care • “Michigan’s recovery oriented system of care supports an individual’s journey toward recovery and wellness by creating and sustaining networks of formal and informal services and supports. The opportunities established through collaboration, partnership, and a broad array of services promote life enhancing recovery and wellness for individuals, families, and communities.” • Michigan’s SUD treatment and prevention delivery systems are recognizing that to treat addiction we need to move from an acute care mindset to that of a chronic model

  15. Recovery Oriented Systems of Care • Services within a ROSC Framework • Community Based Case Management • Peer Supports • Recovery Coaches • Recovery Centers • Recovery Check-ups • Transitional Housing

  16. Recovery Oriented Systems of Care Importance of Community in Recovery • A wonderful analogy from Don Coyhis of White Bison describes the importance of community in recovery. “Temporarily transplanting sick trees, nurturing them back to health, and then replanting them in the original diseased soil from which they were removed makes little sense. We must treat the wounded individuals and the disease soil of community life by treating the community as well as its members – by creating a healing forest. It is in this way that the community becomes simultaneously a recipient of treatment and an instrument of recovery initiation and maintenance.” (Coyhis, 1999)

  17. Contracted Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Services • Prevention Services • Community Coalitions • Strategic Planning • Community Based Services (i.e. Environmental Policy Change, Social Marketing Campaigns, Prevention Programming, etc. • Youth Alcohol & Tobacco Access and Availability Activities • Early Intervention/Problem Identification & Referral Services Treatment Services • Outpatient Treatment • Residential-Stabilization • Residential-Long-term • Sub-Acute Detox Services • Methadone Services • Community-based Case Management Services • Co-occurring Treatment (Mental Health/Substance Abuse) • Women’s Specialty Services • Early Intervention • Peer Recovery Support Services

  18. What Are We Trying to Accomplish in Prevention? ● Fund Outcome Based prevention programs, policies, and practices. ● Carry out the 2010-2015 Strategic Substance Abuse Prevention Plan through corresponding annual Implementation Plans. ● Utilize the Strategic Planning Process to create regional and local systems change. This planning process increases capacity (skills & abilities) and organizes infrastructure (agencies, staff, & other resources) in local communities to create positive and lasting population level change. ● Engage local communities in data driven decision making to reach prevention outcomes. Communities utilize local, regional, state, and national data to identify needs, develop plans, and allocate resources. ● Work in conjunction with structured multi-sectoral substance use disorder coalitions. CEI/CA participates, trains, and provides technical assistance to all eight county coalitions and their provider networks operating within the CA region.

  19. What is a Strategic Planning Process? Why is it Important? It is a capacity building process for demonstrating and documenting outcomes. It involves five steps or paths that include: 1. Needs & Resource Assessment (Data Collection) 2. Capacity Building (Enhanced Skills and Abilities in the Region) 3. Strategic Planning (5 Year Strategic Plan) 4. Implementation (Annual Implementation Plans) 5. Outcome Evaluation (Evaluate, Modify, and Improve Strategies) Substance use disorder coalitions that successfully adopt and institutionalize the strategic planning process will have the ability to bring additional dollars into their county to address identified substance use disorder and behavioral health needs.

  20. Access and Utilization Management Function – Care Coordination Center ● Assure a comprehensive array of services to Medicaid and low income uninsured or underinsured individuals residing in the nine-county region. ● Screen to determine eligibility and appropriateness for substance use disorder services. ● Refer to substance use disorder treatment provider or appropriate support (Community Mental Health, County Health Department, etc). ● Contact provider through “warm transfer” to assure appointment for assessment. ● Not an emergency service, but available 24/7 to answer all calls. ● Review authorization requests for appropriate individual needs. ● Provide care management by coordinating individual needs and referring to appropriate services for efficient and effective resource utilization. ● Track and manage service availability; maintaining waiting list information. ● Assure appropriate use of best practices.
