Adherence to sobriety is important. But to support a person in change, more than one test result is often needed.
How is the person doing between visits? How does everyday work? What happens when motivation fails, anxiety increases or the need for support arises?
With digital tools such as Previct Care, businesses can combine monitoring of sobriety/drug effects with easy-to-use support functions that create opportunities for continuity, participation and a more individually tailored and present contact.
This is how Previct Care can be used in daily client work – follow the mood, not just sobriety/drug-free
The client can regularly answer questions about their mood, motivation or life situation.
Example: A social worker or therapist asks the client to answer the question “How have you been this past week?” or “What has been extra challenging this past week?” before each follow-up meeting.
The answers can provide a better basis for the conversation and help the therapist notice changes over time.
Create continuity between visits
Use the messaging feature to stay in touch, encourage and follow up on agreements.
Example: After a treatment call, the therapist sends a short message: “How did the task we talked about on Monday go?” or “Remember that I know you are doing your best and that I am here to support you”
A small contact can be significant for the client to feel seen and to remember their information.
Give the client the opportunity to express himself
Not everyone finds it easy to share how they feel during a meeting. With digital questions and diary entries, the client can reflect at his own pace.
Example: The client receives a recurring question: “What has been most difficult today – and what has worked well?” or “What are you proud of that you have accomplished today?”
The reflections can then be used as a starting point for the next conversation.
Identify needs for additional support
Through the help function, the client can signal that they need contact/help.
Example: A client experiences increased anxiety ahead of the weekend and uses the support feature. The clinician can follow up in accordance with the organization’s procedures and, together with the client, plan for appropriate support.
Make the follow-up of sobriety or drug-free status a part of the treatment.
Regular tests can be combined with questions, reflections, and conversations about what influences the client’s situation.
Example: A missed test is not merely an administrative discrepancy, but also a reason to investigate whether the client has encountered obstacles or requires additional support.
From control to continuous support
Previct Care can be used as a complement to in-person meetings, and the digital support provides the practitioner with more opportunities to work in a structured way on sobriety, freedom from drugs, and overall well-being. The client receives support in their daily life and can feel more involved in their own journey.
Because it is not just about knowing whether someone is sober or drug-free today – but about being able to support the person on the path toward sustainable change.
