For the first part of the program NH Department of Safety Attorney John Gasaway will provide an overview of the NH DWI Laws (including the arrest procedures, Administrative License Suspension (ALS) penalties, Interlock, and Field Sobriety Testing), in order to support IDEP instructors in their understanding of the laws for effective classroom delivery. Next Karen Estey from Community Improvements Association, a long-term NH IDCMP program, will provide an overview of the IDCMP components with the goal of increasing knowledge, proficiency and understanding for those working in the system as described in the He-A 500 rules. Susan Conboy, Counselor at Concord Hospital, will review the requirements for successful resolution of the “counseling” portion of the service plan. To conclude Susan and Bruce Blaney, Technical Specialist with the NH Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services will outline the WITS electronic health record.
