Alcohol Matrix Bite 8: Management/supervision; Generic and cross-cutting issues
Latest instalment of a weekly cell-by-cell introduction to the Matrices, cumulating to a year-long foundation course on the evidence base for treatment and allied interventions.
This bite is about how the management functions of selecting, training and managing staff, and managing the intervention programme, affect treatment entry, retention, effectiveness and the sustainability of recovery.
In everyday practice, whether interventions get adopted and adequately implemented, and whether staff are able to maintain recovery-generating attitudes and knowledge, depend on management and supervision. Research on these issues is scarce, but also exciting and inspirational, for it is at this level that whole organisations can be transformed from merely going through the motions, to enthusiastic client-engagers.
We highlight studies which place staff in the patient's shoes, then based on the selected research, reviews and guidance, invite you to consider:
Is recruitment the critical missing link?
Is training wasted without follow-up coaching?
What use is assessment? ... without some way to act on the results.
