I think the PRS training is great and glad we have it. The manual is good. Here are a few things that could possibly help with revised manual.

It would be helpful to the trainers if the manual had examples of role plays to utilize, time frames for modules, and training exercises associated with modules. If we are keeping SUD & MH combined then there should be more detailed training on a PRS role with those with MH. There are far more PRS with SUD then MH and think it would be beneficial to address more MH in the manual or talk in depth on the role the PRS has with those with MH.

Module 6 -- Important module and has good information. Maybe add more about MH here.

Module 7 -- Johari Window (great exercise but would be beneficial if there was some examples of it or more detail on it)

There are a few links that do not work. Should double check those. More information on how a PRS should conduct groups and an actual one on one session. The manual should reflect all information that will be on the CPRS exam. Should add a module on DEI. We should have a module on recovery capital and note taking or at least train on these two more in depth. I don't think there should be a separate module for advanced directives. Pearsons with the pencil/questions are helpful should keep them and have more.

Hope this information is beneficial. Thank you to those putting the time and effort into the PRS manual and helping us to be better trainers and CPRS.
