Our technology delivers a robust family support program. Portals provide education not only for the patient but for their family. Interact partners with telehealth organizations to provide connections to family therapists or psychiatrists so families can start to heal and repair their family systems.
When Carolyn Bradfield picks up her iPhone, she's not just scrolling through Facebook for fun. Instead, she's part of groups where families share their grief over losing loved ones to overdoses or their own battles with addiction. This personal connection is what drove Carolyn to take action after her daughter Laura tragically lost her life to heroin, opioids, and meth.
In this episode of 'InterAct LifeLine Audio Journal', Carolyn shares how her grief transformed into a mission to combat the opioid crisis using technology. InterAct LifeLine offers a range of tech-based solutions aimed at supporting individuals in recovery. From text reminders for appointments to virtual support groups, the platform keeps people connected to treatment and community. It even includes a national directory of program alumni and educational resources for families.
One of the standout features is its ability to monitor vitals and track progress, allowing for proactive measures to reduce stress and prevent overdoses. By maintaining these connections long-term, InterAct LifeLine aims to lower relapse rates and improve recovery outcomes. This episode is a testament to how technology can be harnessed to fight one of the most pressing issues of our time.
