WELCOME Dear Colleagues:

For more than three decades, the International Nurses Society on Addictions (IntNSA) has provided leading educational programs for nurses and other professionals who work with individuals, groups and populations impacted by alcohol and drug use, abuse and dependence as well as other addictions.

IntNSA proudly presents the 36th Annual Educational Conference, “Nurses Caring for Patients across the Continuum of Substance Use: Leading Change and Advancing Health.” A 2010 Institute of Medicine Report on the future of nursing pointed out that, the United States has the opportunity to transform its health care system, and nurses can and should play a fundamental role in this transformation. I believe this is a critical time for nurses specializing in addictions to be leaders in change for individuals and populations impacted by alcohol and other drugs. We can and should play a fundamental role in reducing the burden of injury, disease and disability associated with the continuum of substance use. Come to this conference – to learn, be inspired, be recharged – and ready to lead change when you return to your community and workplace.

With the 36th Annual Educational Conference located in Washington, DC, we have engaged experts in various sectors – from the American Nurses Association, Department of Veterans Affairs, National Institutes of Health, the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago, Office of National Drug Control Policy and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, to name a few.

The Conference Planning Committee has thoughtfully developed a program to help nurses in their roles as advocates, collaborators, educators, researchers, preventionists and policy makers. The high-quality sessions, symposia and workshops offered at this conference reflect IntNSA’s commitment to disseminate the latest evidence. You will also attain continu-ing education credits needed for licensure and/or certification renewal.

The conference provides opportunities for networking and expanding collaborations with colleagues. Sharing ideas, engaging in discussions and developing partnerships are as much a part of this conference as expanding your knowledge base.

I look forward to an exciting conference in the nation’s capital!

Deborah S. Finnell, DNS, PMHNP-BC, CARN-AP

Nelson MD, MEd; Michael F. Weaver, MD, FASAM, Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center Research or Experience that Initiated the Intervention: We recognized the need to introduce hospitalized alcohol dependent patients to AA and ease their concerns, and have someone they knew when attendong their first meeting, always an overwhelming experience. #4 DISSEMINATING JOURNAL INFORMATION USING TWITTER Stephanie Higbee, MSN, RN; Carolyn Baird, DNP, MBA, RN-BC, CARN-AP, ICCDPD Research or Experience that Initiated the Intervention: Time does not allow working nurses to review all relevant clinical information from journals. #6 OFFICE-BASED OPIOID TREATMENT WITH METHADONE IN A PRIMARY CARE SETTING Donna Beers, RN, BSN, CARN; Colleen Labelle, RN, CARN; Daniel P. Alford, MD, MPH, FACP, FASAM, Boston Medical Center Research or Experience that Initiated the Intervention: Opioid dependence is a chronic, relapsing disease. The treatment of opioid dependence, with methadone maintenance is highly effective but access has been restricted to federally regulated opioid treatment programs (OTP). In March 2000, a federal initiative aimed to enhance medical treatment of opioid dependence by creating an exemption process allowing methadone maintenance to be offered to “stable” OTP

27

patients in primary care settings with up to four weeks of unsupervised dosing. #7 SOBER MIND: A MINDFULNESS-BASED RELAPSE PREVENTION PILOT GROUP FOR VETERANS Brian Cunningham, MSN, RN, NP, Saint Louis University and Department of Veterans Affairs; Rita Tadych PhD, APRN-BC, Saint Louis University; Kara Harman, PhD, Department of Veterans Affairs Research or Experience that Initiated the Intervention: Structured group therapy program developed in the context of a Post-Graduate PMHNP Certificate Program through Saint Louis University (SLU) School of Nursing, MO.

Adolescents presenting with mental illness are at a high risk and incidence for co morbid substance use disorders (SUDS). Adolescents with mental illness and SUDS pose

28

a short-term health and safety risk such as motor vehicle accidents. Longer term risks posed are derailed developmental trajectories, academic failure, chronic relapsing mental illness and substance use problems and suicide. Use of an evidenced based standardized screening tool for SUDS, the CRAFFT Questionaire, as part of the psychiatric assessment will facilitate the accurate diagnoses, early intervention, and treatment of co-occurring SUDS. Feasibility of the use of this tool and brief interventions in the routine practice of psychiatric assessment will be evaluated. #14 VALIDATION OF THE ATTITUDE SCALE TOWARD ALCOHOL, ALCOHOLISM AND ALCOHOLICS (EAFAAA) AMONG HEALTH PROFESSIONALS Divane de Vargas, PhD, São Paulo University - School of Nursing Purpose of the Study: This research is an exploratory study with a psychometric approach, based on the measurement of health professionals’ attitudes towards alcohol, alcoholism and alcoholics.

Cranford, Howard Tennen, University of Connecticut; Masha Y. Ivanova, University of Vermont; Liwen Chen, Kirk J. Brower, Robert A.

Naegle, PMH-CNS,BC, PhD, FAAN, New York University College of Nursing; Colleen Gillespie, PhD; M. Gourevitch, MS, MPH; Laura Huben, MPH, NYU School of Medicine; F.More, DDS, MS, NYU School of Dentistry Purpose of the Study: Nurses are few in number among educators and researchers in substance related disorders (SUDS).Project SARET, the Substance Abuse Research Education and Training program, was developed by an inter-professional faculty team to stimulate medical, dental and nursing student interest in SUDS and increase the number of health professionals seeking careers in clinically focused SUDS research. Research mentorships, inter-professional seminars and web based modules were evaluated for program feasibility and student and faculty acceptability. #23 NURSE PROVISION OF ALCOHOL-RELATED INTERVENTIONS IN THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Shahrzad Nowzari, RN, PhD Student, University at Buffalo; Deborah S. Finnell, DNS, PMHNP-BC, CARN-AP; University at Buffalo and VA Center for Integrated Healthcare; Lauren M. Broyles, PhD, RN, VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System Purpose of the Study: The patient-centered medical home is a prominent care-delivery model in the primary care setting. This team-delivered care aims to comprehensively focus on both medical and behavioral health needs,

30

such as addressing alcohol misuse through screening, brief intervention and referral to treatment (SBIRT). As members of the interdisciplinary team, nurses have a significant role in delivering patient care, but to date, primary care nurses have not had an active role in the provision of SBIRT. Anticipating the need to prepare primary care nurses for this expanded role, a systematic review of literature was undertaken to examine studies in which nurses provided alcohol-related SBIRT to patients in primary care.

49

3:00 pm – 4:00 pm Concurrent Session B4 – Montpelier Gender Differences in Neural Responses to Wins & Losses in Risky Decisions: Considerations for Contingency Management Treatment Mary Cazzell, PhD, RN No research study has looked at neurobiologically targeted, gender-specific responses to wins and losses which form the foundation of Contingency Management (CM) in the treatment of adolescent and adult marijuana, alcohol and cocaine dependence. In this functional, near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based imaging study of active and passive risk decisions leading to wins or losses, gender differences in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) concentration changes were investigated in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of healthy adults. Findings clearly indicate that decisions to avoid losses resulted in greater cortical HbO activation in females than males. Further research is needed to examine if females succeed in CM due to their neuro-aversion to loss or disincentives or if males succeed in CM due to their increased PFC activations during wins or reinforcers. Please note: Concurrent Session C1 is a continuation of Concurrent Session A1-C1 above. 4:05 pm – 5:05 pm Concurrent Session C2 – Adams Anatomy of a Position Statement: Pain Management in Patients with Substance Use Disorders Stephen Strobbe, PhD, RN, NP, PMHCNS-BC, CARN-AP The purpose of this presentation is to review both the content and context in which an updated position statement was created by the American Society for Pain Management Nursing® (ASPMN®), and endorsed by the International Nurses Society on Addictions (IntNSA), to address the issue of pain management in patients with substance use disorders. Topics addressed in this position statement include the scope of substance use and related disorders, conceptual models of addiction, ethical considerations, addiction risk stratification and clinical recommendations. 4:05 pm – 5:05 pm Concurrent Session C3 – Hamilton Biomarkers: The Latest & Greatest Information for Drug & Alcohol Testing & Monitoring Phyllis Prekopa, PsyD, BSN, LCADC, CARN-AP; Joanne Cole, RN Session participants will gain awareness of how vital biomarkers are for identifying a substance use disorder. They will also understand how drug and alcohol testing outcomes play a critical role in selecting appropriate levels of treatment.

57

1:30 pm – 2:00 pm Concurrent Session D1a – Constitution From Detoxification to Medication-Assisted Therapy: Improving Continuity of Care in a Prison Setting Dianne Carter, RN, CCHP, CRNI; Tonya Bogue, RN Substance abuse in the Connecticut Correctional System (female) is upwards of 70%. It has been demonstrated that Medication-Assisted Therapy (MAT) can reduce the recidivism of substance abusing persons. The York Correctional OTP/MAT Program strives to be ahead of the curve in its attempt to improve continuity of care in this high-risk population.

1:30 pm – 2:00 pm Concurrent Session D2a – Montpelier Recovery beyond the Addict: Help for the Family Jeanne Hayes, LMHC, LCAC Living with and loving an addict can be stressful and painful. Addiction not only affects the addict, but the whole family. Therapist Jeanne Hayes brings her experience, strength and hope to help others understand the impact of addiction and invites them to find freedom from its destructive patterns. 2:00 pm – 2:30 pm Concurrent Session D1b – Constitution A Nurse’s Impact on an Addiction Medicine Practice in the Heart of Pain Pill Country Robert Colern, RN, MS

The proliferation and sudden regulation of pain management clinics in Florida created a dire need for a new paradigm of addiction treatment as traditional means were a limited resource. The nurse’s role in developing provider/client relationships in office-based treatment protocols became increasingly important. The implementation of good nursing methods resulted in greater success in the treatment of opioid addicts. 2:00 pm – 2:30 pm Concurrent Session D2b – Montpelier A Recovered Addict Creates a Good Life: A Case Study Narrative Rena A. Kirkland, MA A case study narrative provides a rich methodological approach from which recovered addicts can give voice to their experiences, practitioners may find ways of supporting previously addicted individuals and social theories and policies may be explored. This case study provides an inspiring and courageous story of an individual who was previously addicted to alcohol and heroin, became homeless and was eventually behind bars as a convicted felon. Through the use of narrative case study methodology, a holistic real-life story has emerged that offers hope regarding the strength and efficacy of the human spirit.

58

2:35 pm – 3:05 pm Concurrent Session E1a – Constitution Age of First Drink of Alcohol: Differences in Health-Risk Behaviors on School Property Sandra N. Jones, DrNP(c), APRN, PMHCNS-BC

The presenter will provide the preliminary findings of a clinical study that asked the question: Are there differences in health-risk behaviors on school property between high school students who retrospectively report first drink of alcohol age ≤ 12 years and those students who retrospectively report first drink of alcohol age ≥ 13 years? In this study, health-risk behaviors on school property (dependent variables) are identified as alcohol consumption, weapon carrying and physical fighting. A secondary data analysis of the 2007 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) was conducted. Independent samples t-test analysis was the primary method of analysis. 2:35 pm – 3:05 pm Concurrent Session E2a – Montpelier Patterns of Alcohol Use & Antidepressant Medication Taking Behaviors Deborah S. Finnell, DNS, PMHNP-BC, CARN-AP Both non-adherence to prescribed antidepressant medication and misuse of alcohol threaten the health and well-being of many Veterans. Providers typically fail to examine these common (and highly interactive) issues together. As a first step in addressing these complex problems, the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of four possible combinations of alcohol use and medication taking behaviors. The majority of the Veterans in the sample (90%) reported 1 to 30 days in which they were consuming alcohol and taking medication; 80% reported 2 to 29 days in which they were not consuming alcohol and taking medication – the optimal treatment goal. 3:05 pm – 3:35 pm Concurrent Session E1b – Constitution Structural Aspects of Support Networks among Brazilian Adolescent Substance Users Ana Maria Pimenta Carvalho The purpose of this exploratory study was to characterize structural aspects of support networks among adolescents in a specialized outpatient treatment program for substance use in Ribeirão Preto, State of São Paulo, Brazil.

59

3:05 pm – 3:35 pm Concurrent Session E2b – Montpelier Influence of Self-Identities on Patterns of Substance Use & Sexual Risk Behavior in LGBT Adolescents & Young Adults Colleen Corte, PhD, RN

Findings will be presented from a cross-sectional descriptive correlational study to determine the influence of the total collection of self-identities and dimensions of sexual identity on substance problems and sexual risk behavior in LGBT adolescents and young adults. Implications for practice and further research with this vulnerable population will be discussed. 3:35 pm – 4:00 pm Break in Exhibit Hall – Dolley Madison Ballroom 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm Roundtable Discussion – Constitution F1.
