Matrix Bite Drug Matrix Bite 8: Management matters
In controlled studies it may be possible to divorce interventions from the management of the service delivering them, but in everyday practice, whether interventions get adopted and adequately implemented, and whether practitioners can maintain recovery-generating attitudes and knowledge, depend on management and supervision. This instalment of the Matrix Bites course particularly explores whether managers should place themselves in the patient’s shoes and whether they can promote change by applying the cycle of change model. Before that is an uplifting story of how sensitive management and administration transformed poor aftercare attendance, helping embed treatment gains.
