Service provider views of oxycontin use on an Indian reservation traumatic effects on the tribal community / [electronic resource] : Sandra L. Momper, PhD, MSW, Mary Kate Dennis, MSW, PhD (Cand.), Amelia C. Mueller-Williams, MSW, MPH. - pp. 312-318.
This qualitative research study on a Great Lakes Indian reservation used semistructured interviews of American Indian (n = 8) and non-American Indian (n = 2) providers of behavioral and physical health services to elicit views of Oxycontin use. We gathered data on existing substance abuse services including accessibility, cultural appropriateness, service strengths and weaknesses, barriers to treatment, and treatment needs. Results indicated a high prevalence of the use of Oxycontin, with traumatic effects on families and the tribal community such that the providers were overburdened with their dual role as service providers and caretakers in their own community. Implications for social work practice are discussed.
