They WREAK of pot and cigarette smoke each time they come in and yet expect us to write them scripts for narcotics. Each time we tell them no yet they still come in trying. I dont feel sad for them, but I do for their small children.

They do that to my dad all the time on the C-IV scripts... He started reporting them to the "insurance" that pay for them... Only thing is they stop seeking care at your facility... But, you also get a DSHS taking those kids away from the family.
The sad part is you get some people who need these narcotics--Sickle Cell Anemia patients. After reviewing the scientific pathology and etiology of this disease, my thoughts are they could really benefit from some mindfulness training. The insurances are already making fibromyalgia patients take these mindfulness training...
The other issue is "intention to treat"... Everybody knows why they come in day in and day out. So, how does one treat this kind of patient without education? I think they call them patient adherence...
