A Community Plan for Military Alcoholics
Abstract
The authors formulated a plan for treating alcoholic servicemen. After a brief period of detoxification, patients were encouraged to have contact with the Mental Hygiene Consultation Service on an outpatient basis; disulfiram and Alcoholics Anonymous were also employed. Paraprofessional personnel provided the manpower needed to operate the program successfully. Although obstacles such as community resistance to the program were encountered, the results were favorable.
