<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">A <strong><a href="http://www.hiredpower.com/certified-pra.html">personal recovery assistant</a></strong></span><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;"> offers clients the necessary measure of help upon returning home from treatment, prior to entering treatment, during treatment, and when appropriate, in lieu of treatment. </span><span style="font-family: Times;"><br />

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">Transitioning from treatment back to family, friends, community and work can create high levels of stress, anxiety, expectations and opportunity for relapse. A sober companion is a reliable source of experience whose guidance is immeasurable for anyone during the early stages of recovery.  Having a trusted ally in the form of a sober companion increases the likelihood of successful transition. </span><span style="font-family: Times;"><br />

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">The Interventionist</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">Recognizing subtle triggers and avoiding common mistakes aren’t always apparent until it’s too late.  Failing to follow through with a structured, drug-free living environment offered while in treatment – or not immediately implementing a specific plan of action to increase one’s chances – unwittingly opens the door to relapse.  In order to prevent possible relapse, a Sober Companion <strong><a href="http://www.hiredpower.com/professional-testimonials.html">interventionist</a> </strong></span><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">becomes an essential extension of treatment. </span><span style="font-family: Times;"><br />

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">The Drug Intervention</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">Bridging the divide between your investment in <strong><a href="http://www.hiredpower.com/interventions.html">drug intervention</a></strong></span><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">, rehab and real world application, Sober Companions are widely considered to be the missing link, given such high occurrence of relapse.  For some, multiple visits to treatment centers may have them resisting another stay, so an alternative approach with a Sober Companion may fill the necessary gap.  Others may be unwilling or unable to enter treatment, and therefore, working with a Sober Companion can become a viable alternative. </span><span style="font-family: Times;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times; color: black;">Sober Companions bring treatment home where the tools required to navigate life on life’s terms are needed and utilized most. With an experienced guide, the familiar territory of using and relapse can become a new world of opportunity for living and thriving clean and sober.</span><span style="font-family: Times;"></span></p>
