Details

Family Inclusive Practice is about how professionals in the workforce actively involve a person’s family and social networks in their care, are proactive in asking about the needs of the whole family, and make sure all family members are supported.

This course is designed to be an in-depth look at all aspects of families support needs, what we are aiming for within Scotland, and how practitioners can adapt innovative approaches to best include families.

It is designed for members of the workforce, completely free of charge. This includes: practitioners working in the drug and alcohol support sector; healthcare professionals; social workers; service managers; volunteers; students.

By completing the training participants will be able to:

  • Define family inclusive practice.
  • Recognise the impact on families affected by someone else’s substance use and that families have their own support needs.
  • Relate family engagement to positive, sustained recovery outcomes for individuals who use substances, and their families.
  • Recognise the influence of practitioner values on family inclusive practice.
  • Identify engagement strategies and opportunities to incorporate families in own practice to support family recovery.
