The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP) is now offering “Co-Occurring Conditions: Promising Practices and Approaches.”

Co-occurring conditions are no longer the exception but the expectation, requiring treatment programs to design services that address the interrelationship among complex physical, psychiatric, and substance use conditions. This curriculum will review up-to-date principles, terminology, screening, assessment, treatment considerations, and programming guidelines, and the interactive program will engage participants through discussion and small group exercise. This six-hour virtual course is divided into two parts in DDAP’s Training Management System.

Participants of this course will:

  • Describe the foundations of integrated treatment;
  • Highlight key treatment considerations;
  • Employ screening and assessment for COD; and
  • Critique integrated treatment plans.

We will touch on the following: common signs/symptoms of COVID-19 in general and some variant-specific signs/symptoms, including what is known about long COVID; the medical impact of COVID on each body system; and its effects on behavioral health. In addition, we will discuss vaccines and treatments.

Residential Habilitation Service Providers Virtual Office Hours: Best Practice Standards in Behavioral Support

The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) recognizes that effective, quality behavioral support must be grounded in and informed by basic, broadly accepted knowledge and processes. We have disseminated the Best Practice Standards in Behavioral Support to streamline expectations and practices for those individuals providing behavioral support in ODP programs. These standards were developed by ODP’s Unified Clinical Team consisting of representation from both the Bureau of Community Supports and the Bureau of Supports for Autism and Special Populations. The standards were drafted and disseminated in early 2021.

We are excited to discuss the standards with Residential Providers, encouraging those within the agency who have a role in oversight or implementation of Behavioral Support Services (e.g. Program Specialists, Clinical Staff, Behavioral Specialists) to join us!
