#2

Biomedical Conditions are stable. Clients have demonstrated the ability to balance their nutrition and have implemented nutritional management techniques.

#3

Emotional/Behavioral Conditions are stable and Clients are demonstrating that they can manage their emotions and behavior and are comfortable intervening in emotionally charged situations for themselves.

#4 Treatment Acceptance/Resistance is managed and Clients have demonstrated that they understand how use of Alcohol, Drugs or old behavior affects their lives and have demonstrated their ability to reach out for professional help as needed should continued support be necessary.
#5 Relapse Potential is reduced significantly because Clients have demonstrated an ability to personally intervene in relapse situations and appropriately use their personally developed High Risk Situation (HRS) and Relapse Warning Sign intervention techniques without regularly structured professional support.
#6 Recovery Environment is stable because Clients have successfully demonstrated their ability to personally protect and manage their “safe” living environment. Clients have successfully demonstrated their ability and willingness to build an outside social support system/network. Clients also have “in place” a working, interactive Relapse Intervention Team, have met with them in supervised sessions, and have developed a personal schedule for that team to meet when they are no longer in Outpatient Treatment.
