This safety video program on Drug and Alcohol Use Disorders in Healthcare Environments for Medical Employees discusses different substances that are often misused, how substance use disorders are developed and what is involved in trying to recover from one. It also includes information about how a facility’s drug and alcohol policy can help to prevent substance use in the workplace.
People develop drug and alcohol use disorders every day, and many of them have jobs. When they are “under the influence” on the clock, it can put everyone in danger. That’s why it’s so important for workers to know the signs of a drug and alcohol use disorder, so they can identify the warning signs in a coworker before an accident occurs… or know how to get help if they are struggling themselves.
Areas covered in the program include:
- substances that are often misused,
- marijuana,
- alcohol and other depressants,
- opioids,
- stimulants and over-the-counter drugs,
- how people develop a substance use disorder,
- physical drug dependency and preventing substance use disorders,
- drug and alcohol policies,
- recovering from a substance use disorder, and more.
The safety video program comes with a quiz, a scheduling and attendance form, a training certificate, and an employee training log.
