title: Training Psychiatry Addiction Fellows in Acupuncture.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Acupuncture has been studied as an adjunct for addiction treatments. Because many hospitals, outpatient clinics, and facilities are integrating acupuncture treatment, it is important that psychiatrists remain informed about this treatment. This manuscript describes the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) protocol and its inclusion as part of the curriculum for psychiatry addictions fellows.
  
  
  METHODS
  Psychiatry and psychology fellows completed the NADA training (n = 20) and reported on their satisfaction with the training.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Overall, participants stated that they found the training beneficial and many were integrating acupuncture within their current practice.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Results support the acceptability of acupuncture training among psychiatry fellows in this program.
