The national policy context
• 2010 drug strategy:
• “Substitute prescribing continues to have a role to play in the treatment of heroin dependence, both in stabilising drug use and supporting detoxification. Medically-assisted recovery can, and does, happen. ...
• However, for too many people currently on a substitute prescription, what should be the first step on the journey to recovery risks ending there. This must change.”

William White’s particular contribution
As William White has commented:
“How recovery is defined has consequences, and denying medically and socially stabilized methadone patients the status of recovery is a particularly stigmatizing consequence”.

UK Drug Policy Commission (UKDPC) Recovery statement
The process of recovery is characterised by voluntarily sustained control over substance use which maximises health and well-being and participation in the rights, roles and responsibilities of society.
![Page 13: Medications and Recovery: Promoting a more recovery-orientated approach; balancing aspiration with caution Professor John Strang National Addiction Centre,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042814/5515e542550346cf6f8b4eb8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
RODT - Where we start from …
• Treatment retention is not recovery• Abstinence is not recovery• ‘Medication-assisted recovery’ – different types of
medication (and many more to come)• The evidence-base of MMT/BMT maintenance; and
the danger of complacency• Recovery importantly is to do with positives• Nurture aspirations – empower and enable individuals
![Page 14: Medications and Recovery: Promoting a more recovery-orientated approach; balancing aspiration with caution Professor John Strang National Addiction Centre,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042814/5515e542550346cf6f8b4eb8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
RODT Interim Conclusions
• Intolerance of sub-standard interventions (‘the poor results of treatment are sometimes the results of poor treatment’)
• Attention to evidence base (and invest in objective examination)
• Look for synergies across modalities (e.g. CM and medication adherence; maybe rehabs and maintenance or relapse stunters)
• Nurture achievable desired aspirations (self; family?; society?)
• Safety net planning and special services (to support stumbling; and to respond quickly to tripping up)

The group’s final report – July 2012 Heroin is often silent, and particularly ‘sticky’ OST is important part of high-quality treatment
system that substantially improves health and wellbeing
For the right patient at the right time, OST can be heath-conferring, recovery-enabling and life-saving
Bad OST or wrongly-applied OST can do harm
Leaving treatment might be important but treatment termination isn’t recovery
Degrees of recovery – realistic aspirations Some people recover fast, some slow – but all
need recovery support Done right, OST is effective but it should be
viewed as a platform for recovery Don’t end it too early: premature OST
termination is hazardous OST termination carries risks: clinicians and
agencies have responsibilities – increased case monitoring, extra support, ‘safety net’ planning and resources
![Page 17: Medications and Recovery: Promoting a more recovery-orientated approach; balancing aspiration with caution Professor John Strang National Addiction Centre,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042814/5515e542550346cf6f8b4eb8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Conclusion: challenges and concerns
• Institutional inertia, therapeutic complacency and the distracting effect of the pursuit of cheapness
• Nurture aspiration in time of austerity – challenge for individuals in treatment/rehab; and challenge for practitioners and agencies
• Be prepared – alert to realities of individual situation and hazards of different pathways
• The crucial importance of ‘safety net’ planning to stabilise ‘stumbling’ and capture during ‘fall’
