Abstract:A program of responsible alcohol service was developed to enable servers and managers in establishments selling alcoholic beverages to exercise responsibility in their service of alcohol in order to prevent injury to and by intoxicated patrons. The Program, which requires three hours on the part of servers and six hours on the part of managers, deals with the need for responsible alcohol service, preventing intoxication, identifying signs of intoxication, and preventing driving by intoxicated patrons. The Program was field-tested on 245 servers and managers in Louisiana and Michigan. It produced significant improvement in knowledge, attitudes, and self-reported serving practices at both sites. Improvement in reported policy, as well as increases in observed intervention in patron drinking, occurred only in Michigan. It was concluded that intervention in the service of alcohol to intoxicated patrons will occur only where there is strong management support. /Abstract from report summary page/
