NIATx is sponsoring a training session 23-25 April 2007 in San Antonio. The title of the training is, "Improving Access and Engagement in Addiction and Behavioral Health Treatment."
For those of you who do not know about NIATx, it stands for Network for the Improvement of Addiction Treatment. The organization was started by a group of human factors engineers who apply the principles of process measurement and design from the industrial world to the treatment of addiction disorders. Among their particular research interests are how to decrease wait times, improve retention in treatment, and reduce no shows. They focus intently on the day-to-day administrative and clinical processes of care and how those contribute to such problems and how they may be overcome.
