Abstract
A previous article published in this journal discussed an outpatients clinic in north London to illustrate the way it can treat patients effectively to keep them engaged and allow them to benefit from treatment. This article provides a 12-month update and further evidences the positive outcomes that can be achieved with an outpatients clinic treating patients who are admitted to hospital with alcohol dependency, using two case studies as examples.
