Abstract
The authors review several significant events in alcohol and drug abuse training during psychiatric residency which have occurred over the past several years. They then report on the results of the alcoholism and drug abuse portion of the annual questionnaire sent to directors of residency training programs. The paper concludes with several recommendations which will assist residency programs to increase skills and knowledge in alcoholism and drug abuse and change in a positive direction the attitudes of residents during their training. At a recent working conference on medical education in alcoholism and drug abuse a set of curriculum objectives in these areas appropriate for residency training in psychiatry were developed. These curriculum objectives are included as an appendix.
