Discover the Difference
Searching for the next step when battling addiction and substance use disorder can be daunting and downright terrifying. At the Discovery Institute, we have been implementing the best techniques to help people return to themselves, their families, and their communities for more than 50 years.
The Discovery Institute is the first and only inpatient treatment center to leverage new, cutting-edge technology, revolutionizing our approach to treatment, including real-time data, geo-fencing, high-tech nursing stations, and advanced patient monitoring. At Discovery Institute, we use technology to ensure patient safety and improve recovery outcomes and keep them connected for a lifetime.
Enhanced Patient Safety with Our Wearable Watches in Detox
With our customized telemedicine platform, FDA approved wearable watches and API integrated software, we deliver accurate data and collaborative care throughout each patient’s treatment journey. Our FDA-approved wearable technology gives us constant patient data during the critical detox phase of treatment, allowing for the earliest possible intervention should health issues arise. These watches transmit a live feed of patient vitals such as heart rate and oxygen levels, which are displayed in real time in the nurses’ stations. Not only does this allow for prevention of serious incidents, it helps build a patient profile that increases our ability to make data driven care decisions.
Discover Lifelong Recovery
When patients are welcomed into Discovery Institute, they are given access to our state-of-the-art app, with the goal to empower patients to be in control of their own health. This technology facilitates long-term patient engagement by providing surveys, appointment reminders and secure telemedicine.
Reduce Recidivism & Hospitalizations
Patients who are actively engaged in their own recovery have a much lower risk of relapse once they leave treatment. Our app allows users to engage with their care team on a consistent basis, including a chat function, appointment requests and access to their medical information, putting the patient in the driver’s seat on the road to recovery.
TelehealthPlatform
Meeting patients where they are is key to effective treatment. Our revolutionary telehealth platform gives users the access to their information and care team 24/7. Patients can trust that their data is secure. Discovery will bring every resource at our disposal to users, no matter where you are. If you have a doctor you love and trust, we’ll link them in. If you need to find someone to help you, we’ve got that too.
CustomizedCare Team
Each patient and each journey in recovery is unique. No two patients will require the exact same approach or team of experts to help them fight this battle. That’s why our Customized Care Team is so revolutionary. We bring all of the patients team members, from primary care doctors, to psychiatrists and therapists to councilors, together in one easy-to-use app. Your team is here to help you.
The Discovery Difference
Traditional methods of recovery show that at best, only 40 percent of those who have attended an inpatient treatment center are able to stay clean and sober, without relapse, according to the National Institute of Health, without treatment, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Alliance says about 90 percent of people with SUD will relapse within 4 years.
We believe that many of these people would see a lower instance of relapse if they were treated as a whole person: mind, body and spirit. Our new state-of-the-art system addresses the pieces that so often lack, the physical health and wellbeing of individuals with SUD. Discovery Institute will build a strong infrastructure for each patient who is seeking recovery, addressing all of their needs.
Insurance
The Discovery Institute, in collaboration with Poplar Wellness, is pleased to announce that our comprehensive behavioral health technology services are covered by insurance. This significant development means that more people can access our collaborative medical care, relapse prevention strategies, and trackable outcomes. Our joint aim is to reduce hospitalizations and make our innovative solutions readily accessible. We advise you to consult with your individual insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage and eligibility.
