Chart illustrating the three versions


Sara says In each version, all staff must provide a consistent message about abstinence for persons with brain injuries

Version 1.0 - Good

Version 1.0 - Good programming provides basic education both for persons recovering from brain injury and their families or significant others. In addition, the program provides a general screening for the risk of substance abuse. This screening determines if a referral is indicated. Finally, all staff are trained in the need for a systematic approach to substance abuse prevention and have resolved personal issues involving substance use by survivors. Version 1.0 activities can be incorporated within existing programs without significant change. Click on this image to go to Version 2.0
