5 Challenges Presented Programme too rigid based on adult model with expectation of rapid detoxification No established social/aftercare supports Service not giving sufficient consideration to issue of adolescent development Staff team drawn from adult service and did not have experience of working with young people Societal attitude to Adolescent Drug Use and Methadone Engaging with families (100% parent/guardian contact) Participant profile; developmental stage, level of substance use, drug dealing, criminal activity, educational achievement, relationship with other group members and substance use within families Denis Murray 2011

8 The primary presentations of 6,950 cases were recorded by gender and age. For the purpose of the audit only one disorder/problem was entered for each case

9 Drug Use Comparison Primary Drug Use Average Age 1998 = 16.5yrs 2010 = 15.5yrs Percentage Female 1998 = 36.5% 2010 = 27% 1998 Parents = 4 IVDU = 6 Denis Murray 2011

10 120 Intervention Medical Medical Active Drug Use Drug Free Non-Medical Non - Medical E X P E C T A T I O N A L A P P R O A C H Four parents in group under age 17yrs Six young people Injecting heroin Four young people homeless 21 had family members engaged in heroin Use Denis Murray 2 011

11 Participation in Education Completed Junior Cert 4th yr 5th yr Out of Ed Alt Ed NACD Report 2010; Highlights that early school leavers and young people who opt out of mainstream education show higher levels of substance use. It is proposed that positive relationships with teachers and involvement of parents is a major protective factor in school retention and reduced drug use.

12 Motivational Interviewing Relati nship Solution Focused CRAFT Family Systems Theory Relationship Brief Therapy MDFT FFT CBT Research (Duncan and Miller, 2000 ) suggests that therapeutic approach accounts for less than 15% of success and that most of the variance for therapy ou tcome is covered by the common ground between all therapies: client resourcefulness and chance events that produce change (40%); client-therapist relationship and experience of therapy as empathic, collaborative and affirmative (30%); client expectation & hope for change (15%). When we include family members and significant others in process we get a multiplier effect. Denis Murray 2011
