很少有系统的研究考察为青少年服务的药物滥用治疗方案的特点。一个专家小组最近确定了有效治疗青少年药物滥用的九个关键要素。我们使用2003年全国药物滥用治疗服务调查的数据，对美国至少10名青少年客户在给定的一天报告了这些因素的治疗计划的百分比进行了测量。对服务于大量青少年的设施的特点的第一次审视表明，许多设施可能缺少被视为重要的组成部分。在将心理健康以及医疗问题纳入综合评估和制定课程以满足客户的发展和文化需求方面，衡量的最重要的潜在改进领域出现了。更令人鼓舞的是，许多设施正在进行出院规划和提供善后护理，尽管这些服务的细节尚未确定。(C)2006 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Few systematic studies have examined the characteristics of substance abuse treatment programs serving adolescents. An expert panel recently identified nine key elements of effective adolescent substance abuse treatment. We measured the percentage of treatment programs in the United States with at least 10 adolescent clients on a given day that reported these elements using data from the 2003 National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services. This first look into the characteristics of facilities serving significant numbers of adolescents indicates that many facilities may be lacking in components considered important. The most significant measured potential areas for improvement occurred in the areas of including mental health as well as medical issues in comprehensive assessments and developing curricula to meet the developmental and cultural needs of clients. On a more encouraging note, many facilities were conducting discharge planning and providing aftercare, although the specifics of these services were not determined. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.
