Contingency Management

In this talk. We discuss why addiction case manager JP cares about CM, an example where he used it in his work and personal life, addiction psychiatrist Wip shared two examples where he used it with his kids, and they went over the key concepts in Nancy Petry’s phenomenal book and guide.

JP loves evidence based topics, and he also also knows CM has the best evidence for stimulant use disorders.

Abstract
The concerns surrounding Contingency Management (CM) are many and reflect how poorly understood and rarely utilized this evidence-based treatment model is in practice settings. Despite being identified as the most efficacious intervention for substance use disorders, a significant gap persists between research and practice, at the client's expense. Nancy Petry, an experienced researcher and consultant for organizations such as the National Institutes of Health, has begun to fill this gap by authoring the first clinician-oriented text that focuses on CM protocol development and implementation. In this well-organized and clear book she provides a foundation for understanding CM and details how to design and implement a program that can work for any clinician, whether he or she works for a well-funded program or not. She also addresses realistic concerns such as: (1) How to describe CM to eligible and ineligible patients; (2) How to calculate the costs of CM interventions; (3) How to solicit donations and raise funds to support CM interventions; and (4) How to stock a prize cabinet and keep track of prizes. Over 50 charts, worksheets, and tables are provided to help the clinician pinpoint exactly which behaviors to target, brainstorm how to reinforce change, and develop a treatment plan that incorporates cost, length of treatment, and method for determining patient compliance. Included with the book is a CD-ROM of editable logs, forms, tables, and worksheets for personal use. More than just filling a void. Dr. Petry provides all of the tools clinicians require to successfully apply a novel treatment in practice. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
