Dual-Diagnosis Role-Play – Annotated Script

If I understand this assignment correctly, we are to make up our own script which will include:

**must include a human service worker looking to provide support to a client

family member, neighbors, special needs aide etc.

 

We need to give the client a dual diagnoses as stated Alcoholism and Depression.  

  • Some approaches or interventions for the substance use and the complicated dual factor (AOD Counselor)

  • How the disorders affect each other  (Family Member)

  • How it contributes to worsening the substance abuse disorder (Psychiatrists/Therapist)

  • The challenges the client may face in society due to the non-addiction diagnosis problem in addition to addiction  (Close friend and Co-Worker)

I'm thinking do a short script, maybe 50-100 words answering each questions and approach the client with a possible treatment and explain your recommendations.
