ROSIE Findings 2: Summary of 1-year outcomes: Detoxification Modality
Executive Summary
The Research Outcome Study n Ireland evaluating drug treatment effectiveness
(ROSIE) is the first national, prospective, longitudinal, multi-site drug
treatment outcome study in the country. The National Advisory Committee
on Drugs (NACD) commissioned this study in 2002 as required by the National
Drug Strategy Action 99. The aim of the Study is to recruit and follow
opiates users entering treatment over a period of time documenting the
changes observed. The contract was awarded to Dr Catherine Comiskey and
NUI Maynooth in 2002.
The Study recruited 404 opiate users entering treatment. This is the
second paper in the ROSIE Findings series and it provides a snapshot of
the outcomes
for people in the detoxification modality one year after treatment intake.
