TEACHING ABOUT ALCOHOLISM
Alcoholism (or should it be called "problem drinking"?) is a subject that all health care staff should know and understand. The programme has been made for a student audience and can be viewed at the beginning of a clinical attachment or used in formal teaching sessions.

Part One: "Alcoholism - the Interviews" consists of an explanation of clinical features and theoretical perspectives. The points made are illustrated with clinical examples.

Part Two: "Approaches to the Problem Drinker" is designed to give a short cut to the knowledge we call clinical experience. It is very practical and makes no apology for labouring the important points - such as when somebody might be better of in hospital. It is clearly divided into sections, such as initial contact, detoxification, treatment options and covers issues such as self-help groups and controlled drinking. The points are all illustrated with candid and frank comments from patients. The programme concludes with a review of primary prevention.
