Download or read book Implementation Plan for Combating the Drug-impaired Driver written by Jack D. Jernigan and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning on April 1, 1988, the Commonwealth of Virginia's revised drug-impaired driving statute went into effect. It defines the drug-impaired driver as one who is under the influence to a degree that impairs his or her ability to drive safely. The revision to the law also permits a police officer to request that a suspect submit to a blood test for drugs either before or after a blood .or breath test for alcohol has been administered. Although the result of the drug test will not establish that a suspect was under the influence of drugs, it will provide corroborating evidence to a police officer's evaluation of a suspect's impairment. In anticipation of the implementation of this law, a task force of local, state, and federal officials was called, together to facilitate its effective implementation. In particular, the task force was challenged to develop a strategy by which traffic safety would be enhanced through the revised statute. This implementation plan was developed by the Research Council for, and in-cooperation with, the task force. Enforcement, prosecution, adjudication, and treatment as well as public information and education are all addressed in the plan. The special emphasis that will be placed on enhanced sobriety-testing and a pilot drug recognition technician program are anticipated to uncover an effective way to detect the drug-impaired driver.

This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.

Book Synopsis Status Report on Virginia's Program to Combat Drug-impaired Driving by : Jack D. Jernigan
Download or read book Status Report on Virginia's Program to Combat Drug-impaired Driving written by Jack D. Jernigan and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning on April 1, 1988, police officers in the Commonwealth of Virginia were given the statutory authority to require that drivers suspected of driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) submit a blood sample to be tested for drug content. Although there are no quantitative measures to relate drug or drug metabolite concentration with impairment (i.e., as with blood alcohol concentration), the result of a drug screen test may be able to corroborate an officer's testimony that a suspect showed signs of impairment. Efforts to change the law began in the 1984 Session of the Virginia General Assembly with the acceptance of House Joint Resolution No. 10, which initiated a study to improve the enforcement of Virginia's law against drug-impaired driving. Many of the recommendations of the study were included in the bill passed in the 1987 Session of the General Assembly. A major difference between the resulting Virginia law and those of other states is that in Virginia, blood, not urine, is the fluid to be screened for drug content. In conjunction with the revised law, federal, state, and local officials have been working to establish pilot Drug Recognition Technician (DRT) programs in the Charlottesville, Henrico County, and Virginia Beach Police Departments and in the Virginia Department of State Police. The DRTs are officers who are specially trained to detect symptoms of impaired driving and to classify the type or types of drugs a suspect may have used. Between the DRTs and the other police officers across the Commonwealth, more than an average of 50 DUID blood samples per month were sent to the Division of Consolidated Laboratory Services for analysis between April and November 1988. Evidence of marijuana and PCP use were found in almost half of the blood samples, and cocaine was found in 9.2 percent of the samples. In only 7.1 percent of the cases, neither drugs nor alcohol was detected. A major problem facing the program is that the average time between the receipt of a blood sample by Consolidated Laboratory Services and the completion of its analysis is approximately 50 days. In order to reduce turnaround time, the lab has hired additional personnel and purchased additional equipment; however, in order to prevent the dismissal of a case, it is recommended that officers set trial dates 90 days from the date of arrest to ensure that the laboratory will have sufficient time to complete the analysis.

Book Synopsis Preventing Psychological Disorders in Service Members and Their Families by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Preventing Psychological Disorders in Service Members and Their Families written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being deployed to a war zone can result in numerous adverse psychological health conditions. It is well documented in the literature that there are high rates of psychological disorders among military personnel serving in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom in Iraq as well as among the service members' families. For service members' families, the degree of hardship and negative consequences rises with the amount of the service members' exposure to traumatic or life-altering experiences. Adult and child members of the families of service members who experience wartime deployments have been found to be at increased risk for symptoms of psychological disorders and to be more likely to use mental health services. In an effort to provide early recognition and early intervention that meet the psychological health needs of service members and their families, DOD currently screens for many of these conditions at numerous points during the military life cycle, and it is implementing structural interventions that support the improved integration of military line personnel, non-medical caregivers, and clinicians, such as RESPECT-Mil (Re-engineering Systems of Primary Care Treatment in the Military), embedded mental health providers, and the Patient-Centered Medical Home. Preventing Psychological Disorders in Service Members and Their Families evaluates risk and protective factors in military and family populations and suggests that prevention strategies are needed at multiple levels - individual, interpersonal, institutional, community, and societal - in order to address the influence that these factors have on psychological health. This report reviews and critiques reintegration programs and prevention strategies for PTSD, depression, recovery support, and prevention of substance abuse, suicide, and interpersonal violence.
