Title Substance misuse detainees in police custody : guidelines for clinical management Type (down) Report
Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages xiii, 66
Keywords AOD use, abuse, and dependence; harm reduction; report; recommendations or guidelines; United Kingdom
Abstract The guidelines recognise that the assessment and treatment of substance misusers present forensic physicians with particular challenges that require certain skills and experience to ensure appropriate management. They stress the importance of good communication, of working closely with custody officers and of shared responsibility for the safety and care of detainees with substance misuse. In particular, they stress the importance of : the full participation of forensic physicians in all aspects and at all stages of the healthcare of detainees with substance misuse/dependence providing advice to custody officers and others involved with detainees with substance misuse/dependence comprehensive contemporaneous records appropriate sharing of information in accordance with the law and the General Medical Council’s advice on professional confidentiality being aware when making all interventions that the interests of the detainee as a patient are paramount. We believe that these guidelines will be of immense value to all practitioners in helping and supporting detainees and that they will also be useful for teaching purposes for medical and nursing staff and arrest referral officers.

Title A family affair? : supporting children living with parental substance misuse : a report of a national conference held in October 2011 Type (down) Report
Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 22, appendices
Keywords AOD consumption; child; parent; family; familial alcoholism; public policy; prevention; conference; report; international area; Ireland
Abstract This conference originated from the findings of a literature review carried out by Dr. Justine Horgan, Senior Researcher National Advisory Committee on Drugs on the impact of parental substance misuse on children. The main finding of this review was that parental substance misuse can, and does, negatively impact on the health, development and welfare of children including both abuse and neglect. As children’s welfare and protection is a major governmental and societal priority, this conference was timely and the invitation by the NACD to the HSE and alcohol Action Ireland to become co-sponsors of the conference ensured the widest possible dissemination of the findings. The organisers welcomed the presence of two Ministers who were fully supportive of the aims of the conference. The presence of senior managers from the HSE Addiction and Children and Families Services was also key to the recognition of this as a conjoint managerial responsibility. This was the first national conference addressing the impact of parental substance misuse on children and the first combined gathering of staff working in addiction, child welfare and protection services from the community, statutory and voluntary sectors. Such a large gathering enabled the sharing of observations and experiences and an exchange of views on the challenges involved in early intervention and interagency work in the context of diminishing resources. The conference also highlighted the importance of public policy with local implementation supported by adequate resources. One such policy, the Hidden Harm strategy in Northern Ireland, highlights the need, as a main objective of policy and practice, to reduce the harm to children from parental substance misuse. This strategy also recognises that effective treatment of the parent can have major benefits for the child and that by working together, services can take many practical steps to protect and improve the health and well-being of affected children. Furthermore, recognition that problems affecting children will only decrease when the number of people with harmful drinking patterns and problem drug use diminishes is of critical importance as are the relevant strategies aimed at implementing such reductions. Points from the Hidden Harm strategy are re-iterated by the following key findings from our national conference as follows: 1. All services, including child, family and adult services need to view the welfare of the child as paramount. Agencies need to work together, taking a child-centred approach, supporting the whole family to meet their child’s needs. 2. Adult drug and alcohol services have a duty to consider and assess how the adult’s behaviour may be affecting the children in their care 3. Invest in prevention and early intervention services 4. Provide services and supports directly to children 5. Ensure organisations are clear about their responsibilities under Children First. Putting Children First on a legislative basis would ensure that organisations have a duty to work together in the interests of the child. 6. Policies that reduce substance misuse consumption levels can reduce the level of harm to children living with parental substance misuse problems. This conference provided a forum to respond to a literature review which clearly identifies that parental substance misuse is a most serious challenge to child welfare and child protection in modern Ireland. The challenge now is to recognise this issue as current, even though largely invisible and to take the necessary steps to implement the policies and measures required to safeguard and protect children now and for future generations.

Author Science Group of the European Alcohol and Health Forum
Title Alcohol, work and productivity Type (down) Report
Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 69, appendix
Keywords AOD use, abuse, and dependence; alcohol; work; workplace AOD policy; workplace context; public health; health promotion; public policy on alcohol; harm reduction; prevention; prevention program; report
Abstract The European alcohol and Health Forum2 requested in the spring of 2010 the Science Group to provide a summary of the evidence base and advice for possible actions by Forum members to address the Strategy’s goals of preventing alcohol-related harm among adults and reducing the negative impact on the workplace (Annex I). In particular, the Science Group was asked to provide: 1. A quantification of the impact on alcohol on the workplace, and an evaluation of the effects on the productivity of the EU workforce. 2. A concise overview of the current state of play across Europe, highlighting key trends and/or any variations in national or sector experiences as well as between larger or smaller workplace settings. 3. Any pointers towards: (a) High value options for additional research or collection of additional data and indicators; (b) Effective approaches to consider for wider deployment in more workplace settings,including any guidance as to the need for prioritisation of action targeting particular sectoral, professional or age specific groups. The Chair of the Science Group suggested the establishment of a dedicated Working Group to prepare a scientific report on the topic. The Working Group consisted of the following persons: Professor Peter Anderson (chair), Dr. Marjana Martinic, Dr. Anders Romelsjö. The report in Part I deals with items 1 and 3 of the above task requests. The content of the report includes the impact of alcohol on productivity both in work (absenteeism and presenteeism) as well as out of work (unemployment) as these are all related, particularly in times of economic downturn, when workers need to be re integrated back into the workforce. The report in Part II, Approaches to reducing alcohol related harm in the workplace, describes a number of workplace interventions in practice implemented by beverage alcohol producer companies. While workplace interventions are applied across many industries and sectors, these companies were selected because they are members of the alcohol and Health Forum and information about their practices was accessible to the Science group.
