I enjoyed reading your discussion post this week. I personally believe that patients that uses the methadone clinic is picking the lesser of two evils. According to Livingston, Adams, Jordan, MacMillan and Hering (2017) methadone clinics are considered part of an effective method during the treatment and rehabilitation process.

When the goal of addiction treatment is to provide a behavior change, it is necessary to gather important information that can be vital and increase the likelihood of recovery. Screening for addiction is appropriate when working with a diverse client population, to identify those whom additional evaluation is warranted. In "Chapter 5: Screening, Evaluation, and Diagnosis" of Treating Addictions: A Guide for Professionals (Miller et al, 2011), we grasp the concept that the functions of screening and evaluation depend on the context in which they are given.

TTM effectively predicts and facilitates behavior change by understanding the stages and processes of change. Interventions can be personalized to the individual's willingness for change, increasing the likelihood of sustained behavior
