Recurrence of Use: Individualized Plans

The best time to discuss recurrence of use is before it happens.

Best practice is to work with residents, individually, when they move into the home on a plan for what will happen should they experience a recurrence of use.

This previously discussed plan should be implemented after any immediate medical needs are addressed and should include:

Treatment providers, mutual aid supports, and recovery coaches that can be contacted for additional support of the resident.
Next steps the home will take to address the recurrence of use, including expectations for residents.
A safe space the resident can go and a person they can contact if they need to leave the home to support the health and safety of other residents.
