Improving Care for Co-Occurring Psychological Health and Substance Use Disorders: An Implementation Evaluation of the Co-Occurring Disorders Clinician Training Program
In the past decade, the number of individuals treated by the MHS for psychological health conditions has grown significantly. Patients with co-occurring psychological health and substance abuse conditions have unique treatment needs, and evidence suggests that integrated treatment for these conditions may be more effective than treating each separately. The Navy's Bureau of Medicine contracted with Hazelden to provide training for clinicians to deliver an evidence-based intervention for treating patients with co-occurring disorders. The Hazelden training, the Co-Occurring Disorders Clinician Training Program (CODP), began in 2008.
