Samples were selected using the census method. The data gathering tool was a researcher-made questionnaire of which the content validity has been approved. To perform the educational program, educational brochures were distributed among all the rehab centers (33 centers) and one face-to-face educational session was conducted at each center. Six months after the intervention, the number of under 12 year-old children who were referred to hospital with methadone poisoning was calculated and compared to the same number from the 6 months prior to the study. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n According to the results, the number of methadone poisonings during the 6-month period prior to the study was 29, while the same number during the 6-month period after the intervention was 9. Fisher\u2019s exact test showed a significant difference between the number of methadone poisonings before and after the intervention (p < 0.001).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n The increased level of knowledge among the parents referred to rehab centers could decrease the rate of poisoning among their children. Therefore, performing this educational program is recommended for all the rehab centers.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1515\/ijamh-2017-0189","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,14]],"date-time":"2018-10-14T05:00:51Z","timestamp":1539493251000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The effect of educating the clients of rehab centers on the frequency of methadone poisoning among children: a study from Iran"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Hakimeh","family":"Abdoli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Student Research Committee , Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"},{"name":"Critical Care Nursing Student , School of Nursing and Midwifery , Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tabandeh","family":"Sadeghi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Non-Communicable Diseases Research Center , Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"},{"name":"Department of Pediatric Nursing, School of Nursing and Midwifery , Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Majid","family":"Kazemi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Non-Communicable Diseases Research Center , Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"},{"name":"Department of Medical Surgical Nursing, School of Nursing and Midwifery, Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences , Rafsanjan , Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025112723541535234_j_ijamh-2017-0189_ref_001_w2aab3b7c34b1b6b1ab2b2b1Aa","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Lund C, Teige B, Drottning P, Stiksrud B, Rui TO, Lyngra M, et al.
