L’objectif

This systematic literature review examines the characteristics, methodological quality and findings of published studies exploring the association between organisational factors and client alcohol and other drug (AOD) treatment outcomes.

Constatations/points à retenir

Organisational factors examined included cultural competency, organisational readiness for change, directorial leadership, continuity of care practices, service access, service to needs ratios, dual diagnosis training, therapeutic optimism and the funding model/health-care system that treatment was delivered in. Outcome measures included duration, completion or continuation of treatment; AOD use; and patient perceptions of treatment outcomes. Seven out of nine papers found a significant interaction between at least one organisational variable and AOD treatment outcomes.
