Recovery Case Management Program (RCMP)
When treatment ends, the recovery process is just beginning. Research shows that nearly half of all those who don't take part in a prescribed continuing care program will relapse within the first year. A long-term care management program is the most effective tool to ensure individuals don't just begin the recovery process but that they remain in recovery.
Our Recovery Case Management Program (RCMP) provides ongoing support for individuals stepping down from residential treatment as well as clients from the community at large. This program offers a clear plan and the structure that is needed to transition back into a sober life. Clients who make it through their first year without a relapse have an exponentially greater chance of maintaining long-term sobriety, and RCMP can help dramatically increase recovery rates by guiding our clients and their loved ones through effective implementation of a continuing care plan.
A comprehensive, one-year behavioral health care management program, RCMP provides much-needed support and accountability. Structured to identify relapse potential BEFORE it happens, RCMP's services include a complete set of tools used to assist in delivering multiple levels of care to those struggling with behavioral health and substance abuse issues. One-on-counseling, weekly reporting, family support and resource referral are just part of this multi-faceted program.
FRN's Recovery Case Management Program is a comprehensive care management program based on the proven Systems Approach. It's NOT a monitoring program. The focus is on collateral contacts, client contacts and advocacy, and processing both negative and positive feedback. This gives us an increased ability to identify relapse behavior and decreases the severity of any relapses that do occur, returning clients to recovery sooner.

THE BENEFITS OF RCMP CARE MANAGEMENT
The Recovery Case Management Program is focused on the individual in need, but it's a complete program that benefits the participant, the family and the participant's workplace or employer.
For the Participant - RCMP facilitates the transition from treatment to recovery while complementing and reinforcing the prescribed continuing care plan. The ongoing program helps to restore trust while supporting personal responsibility and accountability, increasing the potential for long-term recovery. RCMP also expedites the individual's return to home, work or school in a safe way, while providing third-party validation and compliance documentation as needed.
For the Family - RCMP removes the heavy burden of being the monitor or "police" in this relationship and gives family members peace of mind that their loved one's potential for long-term recovery is greatly improved. RCMP also assists family members in establishing positive modes of communication that include boundary setting, limitations and consequences. Needs of individual family members are assessed and referrals to local resources are made, including Al-Anon, therapists, legal aid and other financial or professional services.
For the Workplace – With RCMP in place, co-workers and supervisors are removed from the unwanted role of monitor or "police." Returning workers' improved recovery rates will make them more productive and less of a liability. RCMP is also, time- and cost-effective, limiting workplace distractions and increasing productivity.
