Levanteactions and non-pharmacological strategies based on science, also called non-drug interventions (NMI), have become essential. These methods delay the appearance of many diseases, limit their aggravation and attenuate their socioeconomic and family consequences. They also help to age better. These solutions are not alternatives to conventional biological treatments but complements. They are increasingly recommended by national and supranational health authorities, prescribed by doctors, integrated into care pathways, and reimbursed by insurance and mutual insurance companies. Nearly two out of three French people use it, and more than 100 million Europeans. Examples include nutritional therapy, fasting,NPIs are located in a sector that is still poorly regulated, between everyday consumer goods and validated biomedical treatments (medicine, surgery, radiotherapy, implantable medical device, transplant, gene therapy, etc.). They can take different names: preventive actions, technical and technological aids, non-implantable medical devices, complex interventions,
behavioral interventions, non-pharmacological interventions, alternative and complementary medicine, Chinese medicine, complementary medicine, behavioral medicine, alternative medicine, integrated medicine, natural medicines, connected health objects, unconventional care practices, natural health products, health services, adjuvant care, supportive care, irregular care, integrated care, e-health systems, non-pharmacological therapies, unconventional therapies, complementary therapies, complementary treatments, non-pharmacological treatments. The CEPS University Platform defines NPIs: “An NPI is a non-invasive and non-pharmacologicalintervention on human health based on science. It aims to prevent, treat orcure a health problem. It materializes in the form of a product, a method, a
program, or a service whose content must be known to the user. “An NMI is a science-based, non-invasive, non-pharmacological human health intervention. It aims to prevent, treat or cure a health problem. It materializes in the form of a product, a method, a program, or a service whose content must be known to the user. “An NMI is a science-based, non-invasive, non-pharmacological human health intervention. It aims to prevent, treat or cure a health problem. It materializes in the form of a product, a method, a program, or a service whose content must be known to the user.
It is linked to identified biological mechanisms and psychological processes. It is the subject of efficacy studies. It has an observable impact on health, quality of life, and behavioral and socioeconomic indicators. Its implementation requires relational, communicational, and ethical skills”. NMIs are divided into four categories.
- improve the economic and organizational framework;
- improve information for healthcare professionals and patients on non-drug
- therapies;
- improve healthcare professionals’ adherence to recommendations on non-drug
- therapy
- improve access to non-medicinal therapies” (p.52).
This issue of Hegel offers disciplinary andprofessional perspectives on this growing sector, encouraging researchers andpractitioners to evaluate them for effective and safe practices.
Drug Use And Harm Reduction
Druguse is increasingly considered through the prism of public health and human rights. This 3-week course helps you understand why this is such an adequateresponse. Find Out How Human Rights And Public Health Are Linked Torisk Reduction.
Public
wellness measures focus on improving the overall health of a population, changing laws and increasing political support. You will learn how to harm reduction is an essential part of this approach, using an effective intervention model that saves lives while protecting individual dignity and autonomy.
Understand The Importance Of Supporting Rather Thanpunishing
Harmreduction is fundamentally about empowering people to protect themselves better from the risks associated with drug use. Itrecognizes the role of people who use drugs as an essential component of the public health response and promotes the idea that supports from public authorities and the community reduces potential risk factors.
Youwill see concrete examples of good practices and advocacy actions for a real impact on individual and public health issues, as well as to protect people’s human rights.
Intervention Services
Whatdistinguishes an intervention plan from a service plan? Of a transition plan? In what settings are they used and how? This book presents these plans from the professional practice perspective as they are used, particularly in schools, rehabilitation centers, and youth centers. Numerous diversified examples, as well as two workshops, will allow the notions studied to be applied.
Interventionmethods
Althoughmy approach is flexible, warm, and participatory; it is based on a system and tools with scientific and empirical foundations.
Thispsychologist Conrad Lecomte, Ph.D. from the University of Montreal, and career counselor Réginald Savard, Ph.D. from the University of Sherbrooke, developed an approach to career counseling. Thisapproach is based on the importance of establishing a relationship of collaboration and trust to support the client in validating and articulating the different facets of his personality and skills. Theapproach has three non-linear phases.
Selfexploration.
The first phase consists of exploring and recognizing the client’s dynamic as he perceives it. This dynamic includes elements that belong to the past, which refers to the present and also the future in the form of wishes and aspirations; to create a working alliance by setting objectives and tasks that will contribute to the establishment of an emotional bond favorable to decision-making and action.
Clarifyand Integrate Self-Understanding.
The second phase is to clarify the customer’s multidimensional experience; to understand how this experience organizes all aspects of his behavior and his ability to act; clarify and recognize personal and environmental resources and limitations by identifying interests, skills, values, needs, beliefs, and the dynamics of their tensions; to identify a tolerable change goal for the client.
Tolerableand Integrable Options.
The third phase consists of identifying the issues and risks relating to the change objective; to validate and compare choices in order to retain tolerable and integrable options; to establish a realistic, achievable, middling project that relies on the client’s resources while considering his limits.
Psychometrictests
“Psychometrictools play a significant role in the orientation assessment process. More specifically, they promote a deeper understanding of the person’s situation by obtaining information that is not otherwise accessible. In addition, using reliable and valid psychometric tools increases the objective perspective of assessing the person’s situation” (OCCOQ, 2010). Psychometrics is a tool in the guidance counselor’s trunk to enrich professional exploration and self-knowledge. It does not replace the reflection that the client must make but enhances it. In my practice, I only use tests that are based onknown theoretical and empirical bases and that are subject to regularvalidation studies.…
