“…De nombreux auteurs ont tenté de définir ce que devait être un centre de crise (Weisman, 1985;Andreoli et al, 1986;Chardin et al, 1986;Auroy et al, 1984;Leaman, 1987;Mc Dermott et Gordon, 1984;Kaskey, 1984;Putnam et al, 1986). Nous ne reprendrons pas la description qu'ont donnée chacun d'eux, puisqu'une synthèse en a été faite par Lefebvre et Lecomte (1986).…”

I want to begin by thanking three people who got me started in mobile crisis home treatment. First is Canadian psychiatrist Dr. Fred Fenton, whose book on his landmark Montreal Study first gave me the idea. Second is ex-Director of Psychiatric Services at Grand River Hospital, Kitchener, Ontario, psychiatrist Dr. David Barnes, who certainly created "an environment that tolerates risk taking." Third is social worker James Holland, the first manager of the Hazelglen Program, the first mobile crisis home treatment service in Canada, who ably translated our ideas into practice and provided strong leadership. This book would never have gotten past the first two chapters if Brunner-Routledge editors Toby Wahl and Bernadette Cappelle had not recognized the need for a book on an uncommon subject. They were able to take my original idea and mould it into a much more interesting form. Paula Hendsbee edited my first two chapters for the proposal. Much of what I know about treating patients in Mobil Crisis Home Treatment I have learned from the Hazelglen staff. For many evenings we met in a book group summarizing their experience, skills, and knowledge into a format suitable for a book. For that I thank

“…By participating in and studying innovative programs such as outpatient detoxification units (74), psychiatric residents can learn about these highly cost-effective strategies. Other original programs such as crisis residential treatment, though described for psychiatric facilities (75), are less well-known in addiction treatment and would likely serve an important purpose. One intensive outpatient program, located at Bellevue Hospital in New York, treats crack cocaine addicts using professional treatment combined with peer-led self-help modalities (76).…”

Substance abuse is an undertreated and endemic condition among psychiatric patients. Despite this, psychiatrists historically have been poorly trained in the recognition and treatment of addictive disorders. Over the past 20 years, however, concerted efforts have led to improved substance abuse education for medical students, psychiatry residents, fellows in substance abuse, and teaching faculty. The urgency of recent changes in the health care system combined with trends in clinical research demands improved medical education on the outpatient management of substance abuse disorders. This paper reviews substance abuse training in psychiatric residency education, and our intended readers are faculty members responsible for teaching addiction psychiatry and residents interested in learning about the subject. In the Introduction, education of psychiatrists in addiction is briefly reviewed, and the relevant issues and societal pressures are identified. In the second section, topics and suggested educational strategies are presented for teaching psychiatric residents about the pathology and treatments associated with substance abuse. In the final section, some obstacles to addiction psychiatry training are addressed and conclusions are presented.
