Addiction Medicine Program patients are assessed at intake and discharge using several tools, including the Aggregated Drug Craving Scale (ADCS). Based on data, from May 2018 to June 2021, only 14% of patients had moderate to severe cravings at the end of the program, while 86% had mild to minimal cravings.
We also monitor patient satisfaction regularly to assist with quality control and ensure patients receive the highest quality care. Based on recent data, 91% of patients stated the program had met their needs.
