New Directions uses new recovery app in treatment<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We’ve recently\u00a0increased our intensive outpatient\u00a0treatment (IOP) completion rates by 20%, and with clients needing\u00a0less treatment sessions!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With the help of the Cleveland Foundation<\/a>\u00a0and a Case Western Reserve<\/a> research study,\u00a0New Directions utilized a recovery app<\/a> to increase client engagement and IOP\u00a0completion–both important indicators in early recovery.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A young male client of ours<\/a> was visiting his parents one evening and sadly, emotions were high and tempers escalating. Treatment and Recovery are HARD \u2013 not only for the client trying to lead a sober lifestyle, but also their caretakers, with an intensive need pressed on top of their fast-paced lives.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our client was becoming more agitated and anxious, but then he remembered in a moment that he had crisis support at his fingertips. He began texting immediately with our therapists and treatment specialists. Someone is always reachable, 24\/7\/365. This personal contact simmered down the confrontation between the client and his parents, and avoided a phone call for legal intervention. The young man was ready to continue his treatment at New Directions the next day, and with a fresh outlook.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Staff members Sue Tager and Alicia Monaco recently\u00a0presented these findings<\/a> at the state-wide conference, Addiction Studies Institute (ASI) in Columbus, Ohio. As we\u00a0ALL chase this opiate epidemic, these are\u00a0exciting, positive results to share with our clients and families.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We are proud to be part of the solution in these trying times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
