Managing alcohol problems, part 1.
Alcohol is the most widely used and abused drug in the United States. Each year, 17 million adults experience a serious problem with alcohol, but only 3 million get help. Risky or problem drinking can jeopardize the health and safety of not only those who drink but also their families, coworkers, and communities. Because of their collaborative approach to helping clients achieve wellness and independence, case managers are in a prime position to identify and address clients' alcohol problems.
