Fifty-two women currently seeking or who had recently sought services at the SLH competed in a survey. Higher rates of financial worries and housing instability predicted lower perceptions that the SLH was trauma-informed in several domains. Being white compared to nonwhite increased perceptions that the SLH was culturally responsive and inclusive. Mental health symptoms and recent victimization were unrelated to perceptions of the extent to which the SLH was trauma informed. Efforts to enhance trauma-informed practices may be especially important for women higher in financial worries and housing instability as well as women who are racially/ethnically diverse.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"23 1","pages":"102 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47281501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chi-square testing and independent samples T-testing evaluated changes between a 2018 pre-policy cohort and a 2019 post-policy cohort. Policy implementation of same-day admissions to residential treatment after detoxification resulted in statistically significant change in instances of waiting, wait times for participants who waited, no-show, and readmissions during the six months following inpatient discharge.

As this cohort ages, substance use among old adults is emerging as a public health concern. It is acknowledged that older adults will utilize the health care system in larger numbers due to population aging and increased longevity. How this aging process does and will intersect with the prevalence of substance use problems and substance use disorders is not fully understood but is the subject of increasing research. In addition, attitudes toward gender stereotypes and changing laws regarding cannabis use are adding to the challenges of treating older adults who use substances. In this article, we discuss these issues with Dr. Paul Sacco, Associate Dean for Research at the University of Maryland School of Social Work. Dr. Sacco practiced for 10 years as a psychiatric social worker before returning to complete his PhD at Washington University in St. Louis. His research centers primarily on behavioral health and addictions with a focus on life course development.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"21 1","pages":"410 - 416"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43751087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the scope of existing knowledge in this area has not been mapped. We conducted a scoping review of articles (N=1188) describing various influences of parental opioid use on child health. The included studies (N=41) represented three types of such influences: through parental behaviors affected by opioids (n=22), through prenatal opioid exposure (n=9) and through poisoning (n=10). All three types of influences were associated with elevated risks for child health and development. Little research examined implications for child physical health and health service use; however, the existing evidence suggests concerning trends. One question remains largely unanswered, whether children’s health is affected directly by parental opioid use or by co-occurring factors such as parental mental health problems and/or environmental risks. Evidence is lacking on best practices to prevent/reduce health risks among children exposed to parental opioid use. Research and policy/practice implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":45598,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions","volume":"21 1","pages":"333 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46338380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
