SOCW6103 Week 6 Assignment Treatment Approach

Question Description

Ideally, the tri-fold treatment approach will include a personalized treatment plan. As clients might have different needs, a personalized treatment plan is significant. For example, a client who has a substance abuse addiction may require a different treatment plan then a client who needs to be hospitalized for physical complications due to their addiction.

While all three components of the tri-fold approach play an equally important part in the treatment plan, it is important that clients seeking sobriety and addiction treatment address their physical ailments before moving into the process of recovery where their emotional and spiritual struggles may be addressed effectively. Furthermore, a personal treatment plan should take into account the client's family history, culture, age, gender, and access to resources. All of these elements influence the final treatment plan.
