Current Approach
•
Drug Treatment is focussed on improving recovery capital (housing, training, employment,
relationships etc.) as part of pharmacological and psycho-social therapeutic interventions.
•
Offending is a clear barrier to recovery and is generally an indication of other chaotic
behaviour (such as ongoing illicit drug use).
•
Clients are classified as being on the ‘DIP’ (drug intervention programme) caseload if:
• They have been referred from custody following a positive drug test or a voluntary
referral following arrest.
• They have been signposted to treatment on release from prison.
• They have been taken onto the caseload as part of a Drug Rehabilitation Requirement
(DRR)
•
Treatment is not significantly different to that of the wider treatment population but the
offending behaviour is challenged as part of regular intervention.
•
During the mandatory attendance the aim of the DIP worker is to engage the client into
treatment.

Current Approach
•
Clients are removed from the DIP caseload if there is no declared or proven offending in the
last 6 months or if someone fails to engage in treatment. They are simply closed on that
system and will remain in general treatment caseload as required. Or:
•
Clients that fail to fail to turn up following referral are closed and there is a process to initiate
breach action where the referral is mandatory.
•
Currently 113 (12% of clients) clients recorded as being actively engaging on the DIP caseload
•
Alcohol treatment services work with approximately 55-60 clients subject to an ATR at any
given time.
