This study evaluated the presence of drug-free family and friends in the social networks of patients treated in an inpatient setting for co-occurring psychiatric disorders and substance use problems. Social network interviews were conducted with inpatients at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Acute Psychiatric Unit with co-occurring psychiatric disorders and substance use problems ( = 90). Participants reported about five social network members, of which four were drug-free. Most participants (> 70%) were willing to include a drug-free person in the current inpatient treatment plan to support recovery efforts ( = 1.8 network members) and identified several areas of recovery support. These results demonstrate that people treated in an inpatient psychiatric setting have local drug-free family or friends that they are willing to include in the treatment process. These findings support further study of methods to mobilize network members to enhance social support during and following hospitalization.
本研究评估了同时患有精神障碍和物质使用问题的住院患者的社会网络中是否存在无毒品使用的家人和朋友。研究人员对同时患有精神障碍和物质使用问题的约翰霍普金斯湾景急性精神病病房的住院患者进行了社会网络访谈（n = 90）。参与者报告了大约五个社会网络成员，其中四个是无毒品使用的。大多数参与者（＞70％）愿意在当前的住院治疗计划中纳入一个无毒品使用的人，以支持康复努力（n = 1.8 个网络成员），并确定了康复支持的几个方面。这些结果表明，在住院精神病治疗环境中接受治疗的人有当地的无毒品使用的家人或朋友，他们愿意将其纳入治疗过程。这些发现支持进一步研究动员网络成员的方法，以在住院期间和出院后增强社会支持。
