Abstract

This paper suggests a treatment proposal for drug dependents of the psychiatric ward of a main Hospital, more specifically the Santa Casa de Irati Paraná State/ Brazil, which is a reference for other eight neighboring municipalities. The purpose is to inform about the work which has been developed in the drug dependence area in general hospitals. Therefore, a therapeutic plan was elaborated in order to enable health care workers to act properly during outbursts, prevent relapses and also contribute for a short-term rehabilitation, working together with the patients relatives. In order to support this proposal, data of alcohol and drug dependent patients were collected in 2002, along with a literature review to outline the profile of those patients who search for this service.
