CHEMICAL DEPENDANCY RESPONSE 2
Hello Ibrahim,
I agree with your idea that drug dependency is a major cause of homelessness not only in
Philadelphia but also in all parts of the United States and death among a lot of these individuals.
As you mentioned, this is due to drug dependency causes functional problems that lead to
underperformance at work. It is also true that it is linked to mental health issues. When it comes
to offering disaster and emergency services, managers are faced with the challenge of dealing
with such situations due to being inadequately prepared (Hawk & D’Onofrio, 2018). Due to
psychological issues facing these people, managers are not equipped to deal with such situations.
It is not easy to deal with people with mental issue and having the right training does a long way
in alleviating the situation.
Hello Ayman,
I agree with you that chemical dependency makes delivering emergency services more
challenging due to pre-existing conditions such as poor health, withdrawal, and related disorders
related to opioids. Due to these conditions, they amplify the risks these individuals face. When it
comes to managers offering emergency services, the disruption of communication, and
inaccessibility of these individuals, coupled with the increasing number of those in need of help,
makes it challenging. It is also true treatment is difficult due to strict measures put in place to
control abuse of drugs used to treat substance abuse (Addiction center, 2018). Methadone and
morphine are drugs used to treat and manager opioid pain but are highly restricted making it
challenging for managers to leave such drugs in the hands of addicts since they can be misused
