Seabrook House Provides Additional Aftercare Support with Use of Mobile Platform

SEABROOK, N.J., Sept. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Seabrook House, Inc. has partnered with Triggr Health, a mobile platform, to help support former patients through their recovery. The program, in addition to the Seabrook House Foundation Alumni Services, will provide real-time care to patients in their community after discharge from Seabrook House.

Triggr Health is an innovative, easy to use mobile platform that connects users with their care team, provides peer support and enables proactive outreach. Once a patient downloads the application on a smartphone, it utilizes data monitoring and tracks phone behavior to predict the state of someone's recovery in real-time, enabling proactive outreach without relying on self-report methodologies. This risk assessment combines a machine learning algorithm with an individualized profile based on a person's goals, triggers and real life situations to empower their recovery days, months and even years after leaving Seabrook House. The platform allows patients coming out of Seabrook House to get the support they need right when they need it.

If the app detects a user is at risk for a relapse, it informs the Alumni Services Team at Seabrook House. Alumni Services is then able to contact the user to make sure he or she has all the resources needed to stay sober.

Triggr Health also offers access to a peer support group to encourage users through difficult times. It can connect users with other people in recovery and can inform a sponsor, family member or sober coach if needed.

The Seabrook House partnership with Triggr Health only strengthens our aftercare and alumni services. It allows us to go one step further in helping others with their recovery.

"A phone is the one thing that almost everybody keeps with them at all times. This is an amazing app that keeps a sober coach in your pocket 24/7. The team at Triggr Health has created a life saving tool for everybody in recovery and we are proud to be a part of it," says Seabrook House President, Ed Diehl.

Former Seabrook House patients and their family members are encouraged to sign up for Triggr Health. For more information, visit www.TriggrHealth.com.
