Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of the physician-nurse-social worker linkage rehabilitation model on the psychological status in patients receiving methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). Methods Ninety-four patients who received MMT were enrolled and randomly divided into experimental group (n = 48) and control group (n = 46). The experimental group received physician-nurse-social worker linkage rehabilitation model intervention, while the control group received conventional methadone treatment service. The anxiety, depression and quality of life of the two groups were evaluated before the intervention, 3 months and 6 months after the intervention. Results After 6 months of physician-nurse-social worker linkage rehabilitation mode intervention, the depression status and the anxiety status of the experimental group subjects were significantly improved compared with those before intervention, and both BDI and BAI scores were significantly lower than those of the control group subjects (P < 0.05). Moreover, the proportion of "had depression" and "had anxiety" in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). After 6 months of intervention, the QOL-DA score of the experimental group subjects (183.77 ± 8.90) was significantly higher than that of the control group subjects (174.76 ± 11.14) (P < 0.01). Conclusion The physician-nurse-social worker linkage rehabilitation model had certain advantages in improving the psychological state of MMT patients, which is worthy of promotion.
