According to
SAMHSA’s most recent “National Survey on Drug Use and Health,” more than 46 million people currently meet DSM-5 criteria for having a Substance Use Disorder, yet, remarkably, 94% didn’t receive any treatment in 2021. The reality is that many among this 94% don’t want (or can’t commit to) the type of treatment typically offered. FDH was designed to bridge this gap by offering treatment in the real world— in patients’ homes and around their schedules. FDH’s treatment method accounts for work, family, and provider care. You now have the option to continue your work with your patient while leaving the behavioral health or addiction-specific piece to us.
FDH’s treatment provides an opportunity for healthcare providers to collaborate with our double-board certified addiction psychiatrist—allowing you to continue your treatment plans as we join the pieces of fragmented care together. Each client has a psychiatrist, therapist, family therapist, nurse, and recovery coach who form a personalized recovery team. Partnership with us means better care for your patients.
Whether this is someone’s first time addressing their drug or alcohol problems or they’ve been in and out of various rehabs, we are skilled at assisting clients’ recovery in the real world. Our treatment lasts up to one year, allowing for the highest chances of successful long-term recovery. In fact, once patients begin work with FDH, they experience (on average) a 95% reduction in behavioral-healthcare service utilization.
The current healthcare system inhibits coordinated care, contributing to higher costs and worse outcomes. Our care-coordination system challenges this status quo and provides patient-partnered care, placing the patient at the center of the care model. Partnering with FDH enhances an integrated approach to patient care.
For healthcare providers, partnering with Front Door Health offers a unique opportunity to refer patients struggling with addiction or mental health issues to high-quality, in-home care tailored to their specific needs. Our in-home treatment model reduces barriers such as transportation challenges, stigma associated with “going away to rehab,” or taking considerable time off work and away from family responsibilities. Our approach fosters greater engagement and adherence to treatment, particularly with individuals for whom traditional outpatient care is unrealistic or impractical.
By referring patients to Front Door Health, providers can ensure their patients receive consistent, effective support, reducing the risk of relapse or costly hospitalizations. This collaboration strengthens the continuum of care for patients across the greater Chicago area, allowing healthcare providers to focus on other aspects of care while knowing their patients are receiving comprehensive, compassionate addiction and mental health services.
There are a lot of advantages to in-home treatment, which include:
