Course Description
This Course requires the Participant to read and understand the publication of the Department of Health and Human Services entitled, Substance Exposed Infants: State Responses to the Problem. This publication is the result of a study of ten states in the US and their respective responses to the exposure of infants to controlled substances through parental use. The issue of substance exposure in babies has been addressed on the Federal, State, and local levels; however, variations occur at every level of implemented response procedures. This publication analyzes those variations for effectiveness and to recommend modifications.
This course is designed to alert the Participants to the procedural and substantive application of responses to the widespread issue of substance exposure of infants to controlled substances and whether current measures are successful. This course could be helpful to professionals working with populations of abused and neglected children such as Judges, General Magistrates, attorneys, healthcare professionals, substance abuse professionals, child welfare professionals, therapists, social workers, psychologists, physician assistants, and nurses.
