9:00 – 12:15 America’s Need for Weed: Dancing with the Devil
DESCRIPTION:
Marijuana, also known by many different names, is America’s most used illicit drug today. Twenty plus
states have passed a variety of legislative guidelines making it legal to use for specified medical
conditions and four states have made its recreational use legal; yet marijuana remains one of the most
misunderstood drugs. This presentation will separate fact from fiction, consider its general history,
what the last 20 years have taught us about marijuana and what Ohio citizens will be asking to vote on
regarding related legislation. We will also look at the other agenda of those who have been heading up
the medical marijuana movement.
12:15 – 1:00 Box Lunch – provided
1:00 – 4:15 Ethical Consideration Diagnosis
DESCRIPTION:
DSM 5 has changed the diagnostic landscape, especially in the treatment of individuals with substance
abuse, addiction or dependence issues. This presentation will define the terms abuse, addiction and
dependence and connect the diagnostic process to clinical pathways. Ethical concerns connected with
diagnosis that lacks specificity will be explored. The dual and sometimes non-complementary roles of
diagnosis as the foundation of treatment planning and diagnosis as a billing requirement will be
explored. The code of ethics for addictions’ counselors will be reviewed and applied to the concerns in
the diagnostic process.
