Description
Approved for 2 PDHs in Domain II

This two hour super-session will illustrate evidence-based strategies which can be integrated into EAP practice to identify and manage at-risk, hazardous, and harmful alcohol use as well as alcohol dependence among workers and their families. Panelists will identify brief, easy-to-use screening tools and levels of brief intervention based on alcohol use risk; share pilot test results; and discuss the Brief Intervention Group ("BIG") Initiative focused on moving the EAP industry toward adoption of evidence-based SBIRT as part of EA standard practice. Attendees will receive copies of the AUDIT-C/AUDIT tools that can be integrated into routine EAP practice to identify alcohol use risk levels.
