Tracking how hospital care affects alcohol risk in older adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how adults aged 21+ change over time after being admitted to the hospital for alcohol-related problems. It may help researchers understand which hospital approaches work best for reducing future alcohol-related harm—especially for people who have not had alcohol or drug use disorders before.
