Executive Interventions for Substance Abuse Problems
Executive interventions are best
utilized when a key employee or associate has a substance
abuse problem he/she is unable to deal with and executive
interventions are often successful if performed by a
specialist. Many times employers struggle with having
to let go of vital members of their workforce because
of drug addiction and alcoholism. Usually these employees
have had numerous "second chances" and have
promised to change, but find that they cannot overcome
their addiction alone. Executive interventions can also
be useful when initiated by the spouse or loved one
of an addict, because these particular interventions
take into specific consideration the needs of executive-type'
clients.
An executive
intervention begins when an employer or loved one
calls for a confidential consultation to discuss the
specific nature of the substance abuse problem employee.
During the phone call the intervention representative
will arrange another call on which the executive intervention
will be planned. In most cases executive interventions
involve the addict's boss as well as other loved ones
that have been hurt in the process. Once the intervention
has occurred plans will be made for the addict to seek
treatment and then return back to work.
