PubMed: "Gentilello."  

(Hope I spelled that right.)

It's also a requirement of the ACS VRC for trauma centers.  And the Joint
Commission is interested too.

What is meant by "alcohol screening and intervention"?

What is this in the context of a trauma centre? (Sounds like a primary care
concept to me - or am I missing something?)

Does saying that someone "strives" for 80% indicate that there are other
numbers one could strive for?

What happens and to whom does it happen if you strive for a number and don't
get there?

Simply curious...

happens if you do not make your "target"?
