As I was completing my initial investigation I was returning items (driver’s licenses, registration, and insurance information) to the drivers. I approached Mitchell who was sitting in her vehicle. She appeared slumped over. I knocked on the window several times. There was no reply. I opened Mitchell’s vehicle door. She appeared unconscious. I shook her by the shoulder. She did not respond. I called for Goodwill Ambulance, who had just left with Feeney to return because I had an unresponsive person. I pulled Mitchell out of her vehicle and laid her on the street. I put a blanket that she had in her vehicle under her head. I shook her again, no response. I performed a sternum rub on Mitchell. She moved her head and asked “What’s going on?” I told her she passed out that she was in and accident. I told her to keep her eyes open and waited for Goodwill Ambulance to arrive back on scene.

This paper concerns the notoriously well known successful treatment program, Alcoholics Anonymous twelve-step program, and contrasts it to what would be referred to as a revised version of the original program. Alcoholics Anonymous has been one of the primary sources of addiction recovery in individuals for numerous years. It allows its participants, who are deemed to be part of an international fellowship of both men and women alike, an opportunity to join in a camaraderie that is self-supporting, multiracial, nonprofessional, and conveniently available in a variety of locations. It aims to let its participants share personal experiences and partake in a group atmosphere where the lead counselor bans judgment. The fundamental values of Alcoholics Anonymous exist in the twelve core steps that attendees are encouraged to follow in an effort to redeem control of their alcohol addiction problem. Alcoholics Anonymous has been proven to change participants’ principal values and assist them in changing their perceived outlook on life for an increased potential at living a healthier and addiction free lifestyle. However, the twelve core values of Alcoholics Anonymous have been challenged and questioned in an effort to
