Outcomes
– Success Rates
Samaritan
Recovery Community participates
in a third-party outcome
evaluation project conducted
by the University of Memphis,
Institute for
Substance Abuse Research
and Evaluation (I-SARE).
The
I-SARE project provides
a post-treatment follow-up
evaluation process
for all substance abuse
services for which the
TDMHDD, Division of
Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Services contracts. Its
purpose is to provide
outcome data as part of
the Division’s performance-based
evaluation system
which supports planning
and funding. Samaritan
and all other state-funded
treatment facilities participate
on an ongoing basis in
the I-SARE project to
assist in maximizing program
effectiveness and ensure
that outcome results
are monitored on a regular
basis.
The
most recent annual I-SARE
report includes follow-up
data collected
from thirty-five mental
health centers and substance
abuse treatment facilities
from across the state.
As shown below, the report
reflects that Samaritan’s
programs surpass the statewide
averages on every key
performance
indicator at six months
after discharge:
