2SAMHSAs Definition of Co-Occurring Disorders
- The term refers to co-occurring substance use
(abuse or dependence) and mental disorders.
Clients said to have co-occurring disorders have
one or more mental disorders as well as one or
more disorders relating to the use of alcohol
and/or other drugs.

Adapted from Osher, F.C. (1996)
4COD Treatment Outcomes
- COD clients have poorer outcomes, such as higher
rates of HIV infection, relapse,
rehospitalization, depression and suicide risk. - COD clients have better outcomes with treatment
designed for their special needs.

8The Clinical Planning Process
9Screening Definition
- Screening is a formal process of testing to
determine whether or not a person has a disorder
that warrants further attention at the time of
testing and, within this context, to determine
whether or not a co-occurring substance use or
mental disorder may be present (Center for
Substance Abuse Treatment CSAT, 2005a 2005b).
- The screening process for co-occurring disorders
seeks to answer a yes or no question Does
the client with a substance use or mental
disorder show signs of a possible mental or
substance use disorder? - The screening process does not necessarily
identify the type or the severity of the
disorder, but determines only whether or not the
person has a disorder and indicates when
additional assessment is needed.

10Features of Screening Instruments
- High sensitivity
- Brief
- Low cost and no cost
- Minimal staff training required
- Consumer friendly
Adapted from Substance Abuse Treatment for
Persons With Co-Occurring Disorders, TIP 42
(2005a)
11Measures of Precision Defined
- Sensitivity the probability that the screening
test is positive given that the person has the
disorder. This is also know as the true positive
rate. A large sensitivity means that a negative
test can rule out the disorder. - Specificity the probability that the screening
test is negative given that the person does not
have the disorder. This is also known as true
negative rate . A large specificity means that a
positive test can rule in the disorder. - Overall Accuracy is the combination of
sensitivity and specificity the probability
that the screening test is positive given that
the person has the disorder combined with the
probability that the screening test is negative
given that the person does not have the disorder.

13 Counselor Role in Screening
- In substance abuse or mental health treatment
settings, every counselor or clinician who
conducts intake should be able to screen for the
most common COD and know how to implement the
protocol for obtaining COD assessment information
and recommendations.

14List of Screening Instruments
Mental Disorder Screening Instruments The Mental Health Screening Form-III (MHSF)-III Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) M.I.N.I. Screen Modified National Center for Health Statistics - 10 Questions (K10) Referral Decision Scale (RDS)
Substance Use Disorder Screening Instruments CAGE Questionnaire Adapted to Include Drugs (CAGE-AID) Dartmouth Assessment of Lifestyle (DALI) DALI Screen Modified (NYS) Drug Abuse Screening Test (DAST) Short Alcohol Dependence Data Questionnaire (SADD) Simple Screening Instrument for Substance Abuse (SSI-SA) TCU-Drug Screen II (TCUDS)
Substance Use and Mental Disorder Screening Instrument Alcohol Dependence Scale (ADS) Global Appraisal of Individual Needs (GAIN) GAIN - Quick (GAIN-Q)
15COCE Recommendations for a Selection Process
- Screening Instruments in the Matrix review are
all acceptable. - Decide if you want a screening instrument for
substance use disorder, a screening instrument
for mental disorders or both. - If the latter, either use a combination of SA and
MH screening instruments (for example, MINI
Screen Modified/DALI) or use the GAIN. - COCE recognizes that the use of other instruments
may be desirable in a particular circumstance and
that there are other viable options available. - Consider customizing your instrument with
additional items selected from the comprehensive
list of instruments. - Involve stakeholders and users in the instruments
selection process. - Begin parallel development of coordinated
assessment instruments, placement determination,
treatment planning and treatment resources.
16Assessment Definition
- Gathers information and engages in a process with
the client that enables the provider to establish
(or rule out) the presence or absence of a
co-occurring disorder. - Determines the clients readiness for change,
identifies client strengths or problem areas that
may affect the processes of treatment and
recovery, and engages the client in the
development of an appropriate treatment
relationship.

20Additional Considerations
- Assessment should be a clinical driven process-
involves clinician making connection with the
client. - Consider the client in a context (i.e. setting)
and fit assessment process to the setting. - Take into account the system of care the person
is in think of systems available so you can do
treatment planning.
21Advice to the Counselor Dos and Donts of
Assessment for COD
- Do keep in mind that assessment is about getting
to know a person with complex and individual
needs. Do not rely on tools alone for a
comprehensive assessment. - Do always make every effort to contact all
involved parties. - Dont allow preconceptions about addiction to
interfere with learning about what the client
really needs. - Do become familiar with the diagnostic criteria
for common mental disorders, including
personality disorders, and with the names and
indications of common psychiatric medications. - Dont assume that there is one correct treatment
approach or program for any type of COD. - Do become familiar with the specific role that
your program or setting plays in delivering
services related to COD in the wider context of
the system of care. - Dont be afraid to admit when you dont know,
either to the client or yourself. - Most important, do remember that empathy and hope
are the most valuable components of your work
with a client.
Adapted from Substance Abuse Treatment for
Persons With Co-Occurring Disorders, TIP 42
(2005a)
22Treatment PlanningDefinition
- Develops a comprehensive set of staged,
integrated program placements and treatment
interventions for each disorder that is adjusted
as needed to take into account issues related to
the other disorder. - The plan is matched to the individual needs,
readiness, preferences, and personal goals of the
client.

23What is an Evidence-Based Practice?
- In the area of COD treatment, EBP is defined by
COCE primarily as the use of current and best
research evidence in making clinical and
programmatic decisions about services to
clients). The research considerations involved
in determining what constitutes an evidence-based
practice include not only the robustness of the
study findings but also the type of design
employed and the methodological rigor of the
procedures. - A broader definition of EBP also includes taking
into account clinician expertise and patient
values, as indicated by the Institute of Medicine
(2000) and more recently by the American
Psychological Association (2005).

for COD
Consensus-Based Principles for COD Services Consensus-Based COD Program Components Evidence-Based Practices from Substance Abuse Treatment Evidence-Based Practices from Mental Health1 Evidence-Based Practices for COD For Substance Abuse and Other Outcomes (mostly those with severe mental disorders)2
Employ a recovery perspective Screening, assessment, and referral Motivational enhancement Medical management approaches in psychiatry Group Counseling
Adopt a multi-problem viewpoint Psychiatric and mental health consultation Cognitive-behavioral therapy Family Psychoeducational Contingency Management
Develop a phased approach to treatment Intensive case management Relapse prevention Supported employment Long-Term Residential (including Modified TCs)
Address specific real-life problems early in treatment Prescribing on-site psychiatrist Illness management and recovery skills For Other Outcomes (but not substance abuse)

Use support systems to maintain and extend treatment effectiveness Psychoeducational classes Integrated Dual Disorder Treatment Legal Interventions
Expect co-occurring disorders and reflect that assumption in screening, assessment, and treatment planning Double recovery groups
Consider both substance use and mental disorders as equally important
Individualize treatment plans to accommodate specific needs and personal goals of clients

Adapted from CSAT, 2005a, Substance Abuse
Treatment for Persons With Co-Occurring
Disorders, TIP 42
38Principles That Guide Provider Activity For
People With COD
- Co-occurring disorders must be expected and
treatment approaches should incorporate this
assumption in all screening, assessment and
treatment planning. - Within the treatment context, both co-occurring
disorders are considered of equal importance1. - Empathy, respect, and the belief in the
individuals capacity for change are fundamental
provider attitudes. - Treatment should be individualized to accommodate
the specific needs and personal goals of unique
individuals in different stages of change.

40Conclusion
- Much has been accomplished in the field of COD in
the last 10 years, and the knowledge acquired is
ready for broader dissemination and application. - The importance of the transfer and application of
knowledge and technology has likewise become
better understood. - New government initiatives (for example, COSIG,
COCE, and MHT) are underway that improve services
by promoting innovative technology transfer
strategies using material that reflect the recent
advances in the field.
