Last Updated: January 9, 2009 Flynn, P. M., & Brown, B. S. (2008). Co-occurring disorders in substance abuse treatment: Issues and prospects. Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment, 34(1), 36-47. Abstract: Epidemiological implications of co-occurring disorders are explored and potential influences on substance abuse treatment and client functioning are discussed. Severity of disorders is emphasized as an issue in the selection of specialized as opposed to traditional substance abuse treatments. Implications of resource availability, particularly existing human resources, for undertaking initiatives specific to co-occurring disorder are presented. Research findings from standard and enhanced treatment for individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders are examined in an effort to identify personnel needs for both specialized and typical treatments. Consideration is given to assessment and diagnosis, manpower and training, and response to the challenge of relapse in this population. Conclusions and recommendations are presented for both clinical research and treatment provider communities.
