Area of Science:

  • Addiction Medicine
  • Behavioral Health
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Patient adherence to substance use disorder (SUD) treatment is assumed to improve outcomes.
  • Limited research exists on adherence during the continuing care phase post-residential treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the effect of adherence to continuing care plans on long-term SUD treatment outcomes.
  • To assess the relationship between adherence levels and post-discharge results.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of electronic medical records for 271 patients discharged from residential SUD treatment.
  • Categorization of patients based on adherence to multi-component continuing care plans.
  • 12-month follow-up assessing abstinence, re-admission, and quality of life.

Main Results:

  • Fully adherent patients had significantly better 12-month outcomes in continuous abstinence and quality of life compared to non-adherent groups.
  • Fully adherent patients were over 9 times more likely to achieve continuous abstinence.
  • Fully adherent patients were over 7 times more likely to report a positive quality of life.

Conclusions:

  • Greater adherence to continuing care plans is strongly associated with favorable long-term outcomes in SUD treatment.
  • Findings support the importance of adherence for realistic outcome expectations.
  • Adherence to multi-component continuing care plans is crucial for sustained recovery.
