If we really believed addiction was a chronic disease, I think we would really focus very intensively on linkages within a recovery-oriented system of care.
What happens when the brightest minds in addiction treatment gather under one roof? The NAATP 2019 National Leadership Conference in Washington D.C. was a melting pot of ideas, strategies, and innovations aimed at enhancing the quality and effectiveness of addiction care. Hosted by Neil Scott, this episode of 'Recovery Coast to Coast' offers a front-row seat to the conference's most compelling sessions.
Marvin Ventrell, JD, the Executive Director of NAATP, kicks things off with an eye-opening discussion on the state of the association. He delves into the core competencies of addiction treatment business operations and how these can be leveraged to provide more effective services. Ventrell also emphasizes the importance of visibility in the NAATP addiction industry directory for payers, providers, the press, and the public. Next up is John F.
Kelly, PhD, from Harvard Medical School, who introduces the measurement-based practice model. Kelly explains how 'recovery vital signs'—metrics like patient engagement and retention—can significantly improve the quality of addiction care. He also tackles the challenges of applying research findings in real-world settings and stresses the need for meaningful measurements on the front lines. The episode wraps up with a heartfelt tribute to Betty Ford by Lisa McCubbin and Susan Ford.
They explore Ford's legacy as a First Lady, women's advocate, and trailblazer in addiction recovery. This session underscores the importance of direct addiction treatment services and the implementation of core competencies to enhance care quality. Whether you're a professional in the field or someone on a recovery journey, this episode is packed with valuable insights that could make a real difference in your approach to addiction care.
