Substance Use Screening Tools for Adolescents

One of the largest barriers to providing appropriate substance use services to adolescents is getting them to open up about their use and engage in conversation to reduce or eliminate it, if necessary. The Using SBIRT to Talk to Adolescents about Substance Use four-part webinar series introduces health professionals to the SBIRT model as a way to learn from adolescents about their substance use, talk about what might motivate them to make a decision to reduce or abstain (if needed), and execute a plan to do so. This first webinar in the series discusses the value, rationale for, and evidence of using the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) model with adolescents as well as the use of valid, brief screening tools for substance use and other risk factors and how to determine the recommended level of intervention based on level of risk. Participants will learn how to introduce screening to adolescents and how to relate screening score results to level of risk and appropriate level of intervention. This webinar will review the CRAFFT+N 2.1, S2BI, the NIDA Modified ASSIST Levels 1 and 2, BSTAD, PHQ-2/9A, and C-SSRS for use with adolescents, providing instructions and scoring for each. Along with cutting-edge, evidence-based education, the expert presenters will provide sample scripts and role plays so participants gain strategies to use right away with adolescents in many settings. This free education is ideal for anyone who wishes to gain an in-depth understanding of SBIRT and its use with adolescents, designed for both those who are new to SBIRT and for those who want more advanced training beyond an overview.

Barriers and Facilitators to SBIRT Education in Social Work, Nursing and Inter prof

Description: Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) is a comprehensive, integrated, public health approach to the delivery of early intervention, treatment, and ongoing recovery supports for persons with risky and/or dependent alcohol use. Early alcohol and drug use among adolescents and young adults is linked to a range of immediate and long term consequences. Research has demonstrated that SBIRT is a promising approach for the early identification and intervention of problematic alcohol use, and there is growing evidence for its effectiveness in reducing other risky drug use. However, there is not much support for SBIRT education in undergraduate and graduate programs, despite the fact that alcohol and substance abuse prevention programs have a body of supporting evidence. Substance use education and training is often optional or specialized education, as opposed to being required course work. This presentation will focus on identifying and addressing barriers to SBIRT education for nursing and social work programs as well as inter-professional trainings. NORC at the University of Chicago has been funded by the Conrad N. Hilton foundation to increase education and training opportunities in adolescent SBIRT within undergraduate and graduate social work and nursing programs. Results from the recent needs assessment survey conducted by NORC will guide this presentation about barriers in the field for social work and nursing students, practitioners and educators. After outlining major barriers to SBIRT education, presenters will highlight resources—including curriculum, case-based virtual simulations for students and practice role plays—offered by NORC to support SBIRT education and next steps to help address these concerns.

Substance use education and training is often optional or specialized education, as opposed to being required course work. This session will focus on the value of integrating SBIRT with adolescents into nursing, social work, and inter-professional education and share ideas for integrating content and new learning resources into baccalaureate and graduate level curriculum. NORC at the University of Chicago has been funded by the Conrad N. Hilton foundation to increase education and training opportunities in adolescent SBIRT within undergraduate and graduate social work and nursing programs. In October 2014, NORC partnered with the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), Center for Clinical Social Work, and American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) to support the integration of adolescent SBIRT into required course work for students. As part of this project, NORC conducted a needs assessment and has engaged a learning collaborative (LC) of more than 70 schools to integrate adolescent SBIRT education. In addition, NORC and Kognito, a digital simulation company, have worked with the LC and experts to build a series of case-based virtual simulations to allow students, educators, and practitioners to practice substance use screening and brief interventions with adolescents.

Integrating Grief and Loss Conversations into the SBIRT Model

According to the Dougy Center: The National Center for Grieving Children and Families, individuals cope with losses in different ways; therefore, there is no right or wrong way to grieve. In adolescents and young adults, feelings of loss and grief can develop from many things beyond a loved one's physical death, such as loss of developmental experiences or milestones. This webinar will explore the various definitions and components of grief and loss and how it can manifest in adolescents and young adults. Using the SBIRT model, participants will learn to identify warning signs and screen for complicated grief in adolescents and young adults, conduct a brief intervention, and link them to appropriate resources for further treatment, including substance use and depression. The presenter will also outline protective and mitigating factors to help adolescents and young adults cope with grief and loss.

All About SBIRT for Teens

Description/Course Outline: Although there is now a range of treatment for adolescents involved with drugs, treatment services for adolescents are more the exception than the rule. Approximately 15- 25% of adolescents meet a current (prior year) definition of early-stage, mild-to-moderate drug involvement (i.e., not advanced to dependence), however most drug treatment programs do not have programs suited to address these early-stage drug using teenagers. A promising treatment option that may help to address this service gap and has high potential for application to drug abusing teenagers is the SBIRT (screening, brief intervention, referral to treatment) model. SBIRT is a comprehensive, integrated, public health approach to the delivery of early intervention and treatment services for persons with substance use disorders, as well as those who are at risk of developing these disorders. This webinar will review each of the SBIRT components in terms of resources, implementation and evidence of effectiveness.
