From Hazelden.org website, public policy sectiom:

Medical professionals must make screening for alcohol and other drug problems a routine part of every primary care and emergency room visit.

Are you in favor of such a policy that says people who visit their doctor or ER must be drug and alcohol screened?

They're funded by the RWJF. They also fund organizations who say gun ownership is a "health care issue" and think every doctor should be required to ask if the patient owns guns, and that information should become part of the patient record.

Shirley, you can't be asking me this? I'm shocked that someone, anyone,for one minor instant, could ever mistake me for a control freak. I am in favor of being truthful. Especially with your children. These elmer gantrys live in a world of fear and raise their kids with deceit and threats they cannot enforce, teaching their kids how to be fearful and deceitful.

No, I am not in favor of such a thing.
