Welcome to the Effectiveness Bank, a service provided by the Drug and Alcohol Findings project to
alert you to recent evaluation studies and reviews with important practice implications.

English drug treatment patients engage best with open, innovative services
The most wide-ranging investigation of the organisational health of British treatment services found
clients engaged best when services fostered communication, participation and trust among staff, had
a clear mission, but were open to new ideas and practices. There is a striking concordance between
this study and another British study cited in the entry. Together they suggest that organisations
and drug workers characterised by openness to change rather than play-safe conformity get the best
out of clients by increasing their participation in their treatment and deepening their
relationships with staff.
