ITep & recovery Care Planning Course description Aims & Objectives DANOS Units

  • ITEP Mapping & Recovery Care Planning

    ITEP (International Treatment Effectiveness Project) is proposed as one mechanism by which treatment quality may be both improved and measured. The project is a collaboration between the NTA, The Institute of Behavioral Research at the Texas Christian University (IBR at TCU) and a series of service providers in north-west England. ITEP builds on an internationally evaluated model of service improvement and adapts the model for use in England. Back to all training on drugs ยป

    Effective means of embedding the ITEP programme in service operations may vary from one service to another, depending on the type of service functioning and resources utilized.

    A pro-active and systematic approach to implementing ITEP increases probability of good outcomes. It is helpful if service managers, lead clinicians, consultants and team leaders are fully 'on-board' with the programme.

    Mapping allows a worker the opportunity to interact with a client around an issue that is important to the client in a structured way and maximises the impact of a brief intervention.
