Sometimes being forced into something is a great way to shed light on the potential benefits of something right that people might not have been open to trying before.
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, many businesses had to pivot quickly, and substance abuse treatment centers were no exception. In this episode of 'ROACHE on RECOVERY', the hosts share how they adapted their residential and outpatient programs to continue supporting their clients. With video conferencing already part of their routine for staff meetings and trainings, transitioning to Zoom-based therapy sessions was a logical next step. But it wasn't without its challenges.
The team had to rethink their use of space to maintain social distancing at the residential facility and get creative with how they connected with clients from home. Despite these hurdles, they managed to stay symptom-free and provide effective therapy. They even found that Zoom sessions could be almost as good as in-person therapy.
The hosts also touch on the broader impact of COVID-19 on private businesses, including the crucial role of taxes and funding in supporting state and local governments. They emphasize the importance of flexibility and regulatory adaptability during such unprecedented times. If you're curious about how one treatment center navigated these challenges and what lessons they learned along the way, this episode is a must-listen.
