What is the whole person approach to treatment?
Whole person care is a holistic approach to treating substance use disorder (SUD) that recognizes the importance of addressing all aspects of the person's life. It is particularly beneficial for people with SUD, as it's usually accompanied by other health problems, such as mental illness, chronic physical health conditions, and social determinants of health. By addressing all of these issues in a comprehensive way, whole person care can help people with SUD achieve long-term recovery and sustainable well-being.​
​Here are some specific examples of how whole person care can be used to treat substance use:
Addressing Co-occurring Mental Health Condition
People with SUD often struggle with mental health issues like depression or anxiety. Whole person care providers offer integrated treatments that address both conditions simultaneously, leading to improved outcomes. These treatments might include medication-assisted therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Treating chronic physical health conditions
People with SUD are more likely to have chronic physical health conditions, such as HIV/AIDS, liver disease, or heart disease. Whole person care providers can help to manage these conditions and reduce the risk of complications. This may involve providing referrals to specialists, such as infectious disease doctors or cardiologists, who can provide specialized care for these conditions.
Addressing social determinants
of health
By taking a comprehensive approach that addresses both the individual's needs and the broader social context, substance use treatment programs can provide more effective and sustainable care.
Overall, whole person care is a promising approach to treating substance use. It has the potential to improve treatment outcomes, reduce healthcare costs, and increase patient satisfaction. If you are struggling with SUD, or if you know someone who is, I encourage you to learn more about whole person care and how it can help.
