Individuals enrolled in Thrive’s services have access via their smartphones virtual peer support services provided by CHESS Health and a robust set of recovery and support tools, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The program is especially needed in the wake of increased overdose deaths. CHESS Health’s eRecovery solution, which includes the Connections app, helps individuals reduce isolation, build confidence and adhere to a treatment and recovery plan.
“Our partnership with CHESS Health enables us to support individuals throughout their journey, day or night, no matter where they live. In addition to the in-person peer support services we offer at Thrive, this is another valuable resource we can extend to our clients to help maintain a continuum of care,”said Brian Bailys, CEO and Co-Founder of Thrive.
“It’s essential that recovery support reaches patients where they are,” said Hans Morefield, CEO of CHESS Health. “That means getting support tools like the Connections app in individuals’ hands as they leave treatment facilities, start outpatient care, or even pre-treatment. We’re proud to partner with the team at Thrive– the perfect complement to our technology.”
