This COVID-19 pandemic is unprecedented. The necessary impact on our day-to-day lives would have been unthinkable just two weeks ago. While everyone is affected, those of us serving the addiction treatment/recovery space realize social-distancing is very risky for those in recovery. In reality, relapse is more life-threatening than the virus. The only bright spot for all of us at CHESS Health during this crisis is knowing that the Connections App is helping people, from Maine to Australia. Last week’s overall usage was 34% higher than the prior week and patient messaging across the platform was up over 200%. Our provider staff increased their messaging to their patients by over 300% compared to the prior week – and the prior week was a record week itself. We are grateful to offer a safe method to reduce isolation and continue the recovery process for those with substance use disorder. Please reach out to us directly if we can be of any assistance and thank you to everyone standing in the gap addressing addiction and medical issues at this critical time.
