A Case Study on Providing Digital SUD Support for First Responders

This case study highlights how an organization employing first responders in the high-stress emergency services sector has effectively addressed substance use disorders (SUD) using innovative digital tools. With SAMHSA reporting that approximately 30% of first responders develop behavioral health conditions such as depression and PTSD, it’s crucial to provide tailored support for this vulnerable workforce. 

Recognizing these challenges, the organization partnered with CHESS Health to implement evidence-based solutions that prioritize confidentiality and employee well-being. By adopting ePrevention and eRecovery platforms, they have created a safe space for staff to confidentially assess their substance use and access vital resources.

Discover how this organization has integrated CHESS Health’s solutions into its EAP program, enhancing employee morale, fostering a healthier work environment, protecting the organization’s reputation, and achieving financial benefits, including investment protection and cost savings.
