Week 5 Introduce a New Community Program Adolescent alcohol and other drug problems are rampant in your small community. You are a licensed psychologist employed as a Human Resources Director at the largest employer in your community. As a contribution to the community, you have been asked to establish an alcohol and drug program. You want to select a program name that is professional, but that people will remember, and a description of services and clients who will be served, which is sufficiently broad to attract clients. Once it is open, you plan to hire certified drug and alcohol counselors. In the interim, you will be the director and only employee. Prepare an announcement with accompanying article for your local newspaper to introduce your alcohol and drug program. Reference your areas of expertise, your training, and any relevant experience. In your article, you must discuss fee schedules, payment options, and your policies regarding insurance billing. Include any other relevant information regarding the successful launch of your program while remaining in compliance with ethical standards. Be creative; include any visual aids, charts, or images you feel will enhance your article. This assignment is primarily an exercise in conforming pretend public statements (advertisements) to Standard Five of the Ethics Code, Advertising and Other Public Statements. Guidelines 1) The scenario begins by noting that your community has a problem with adolescent substance abuse. Therefore, make the program be one that is designed exclusively for adolescents with substance use problems, (and their families). 2) Since the community is small and the program will start as a one person operation, make it be an exclusively outpatient program. 3) The scenario states that you are both a licensed psychologist and the director of human resources. This is an unlikely combination of two unrelated professions. Therefore I suggest instead, that in the scenario you be the person in the company who provides employee assistance counseling. 4) Make up your credentials, as you wish they could be years from now. Note that Standard 5.02 lists a number of areas of credentials. In your assignment, include all of those areas of credentials. 5) Regarding the rates of charges, payment policies, and insurance, the idea here is that psychologists have the ethical obligation to inform, in advance, potential clients of the financial responsibilities of entering treatment.

In the meantime: In the meantime: 1) Avoid stimulants – Nicotine, alcohol, caffeine and refined sugar products are all stimulants, so using them when stressed will only prolong your state of stress. Instead, keep yourself well hydrated by drinking water or herbal teas. 2) Get a good night’s sleep – Bad sleep is both a cause and symptom of stress. Allow your body and mind to relax before bed by creating a wind-down routine. Prepare for a good night’s sleep by removing all stimulants and do something relaxing! 3) Listen to your body – Your body will tell you what it needs; it is important you tune in and listen. If you feel tired, hungry or thirsty, do something about it. 4) Learn to say ‘NO’ – Simple but effective. Negotiate a mutually agreeable outcome and when ‘no’ is the appropriate response, say it without guilt. 5) Take 5 – Take a break and calm down with a walk, flick through a magazine or listen to some music. Don’t continue with something if it’s driving you crazy, leave it for half hour and come back to it later with a fresh perspective. 6) Exercise your breathing – Sit or stand in a relaxed position Slowly inhale through your nose, counting to five Let the air out through your mouth, counting to eight Repeat several times. That’s it! As you breathe, let your abdomen expand outward, rather than raising your shoulders. This is a more relaxed and natural way to breathe, and helps your lungs fill themselves more fully with fresh air, releasing more ‘old’ air You can do this just a few times to release tension, or for several minutes as a form of meditation If you like, you can make your throat tighter as you exhale so the air comes out like a whisper. This type of breathing is used in some forms of yoga and can add additional tension relief 7) Organisational tips – Make a list of all the things that you need to do: List of them in order of genuine importance Noting what you need to do personally and what can be delegated to others Noting what needs to be done immediately, in the next week or next month or not at all! Create time buffers to deal with unexpected emergencies. 8) A problem shared is a problem halved – Speak to a friend, or family member about what is stressing you out. Sometimes just speaking to someone can help decrease your stress levels (although, it’s best to be mindful about others’ stress levels before sharing your challenges) If speaking to someone you know isn’t an option, “Mind” have created a great online community where you can safely share and be heard, as well as listen to others:http://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/support-community-elefriends/ If you prefer speaking on a one to one basis with someone, we recommend calling the Samaritans on their 24hour phone line: 08457 90 90 90 9) Seek professional help – If you feel you’re at breaking point, visit your GP and ask about counselling. Seeking professional help isn’t admitting defeat or a sign of weakness; it’s merely using the resources around you to find a solution to a problem. Enquire if your employer has any support provisions in place such as an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) or access to a counselling service.
