Problem: Analyzing Addiction Treatment Plans
An addiction treatment plan is a plan of action. It provides a map for clients receiving treatment services so that they will know where they are going, how they will get there, and how they will know when they have arrived at their final destination.
There are numerous addiction treatment plan formats, but they all should contain at a minimum these five elements: (i) long-term goals related to each problem or need; (ii) short-term goals for each long-term goal; (iii) objectives of how short-term goals will be achieved; (iv) strategies or therapeutic interventions for meeting each objective; and (v) expected outcomes. The specific objectives should be conveyed in measurable, behavioral terms that state what the client will do to meet each short-term goal. Objectives should be broken down into a series of small, achievable steps that move incrementally toward a larger end goal.
