Abstract

Substance abuse is an issue in Waitsfield, VT and currently there is no formal program or intervention at Mad River Family Practice to help patients overcome their addictions. Screening, brief intervention and referral to treatment (SBIRT) is a program to identify at risk patients, raise awareness of their abuse, and help them find support and treatment they need.
