Substance Use & Misuse
D SpottsJ Smith

Abstract

The timely follow-up of clients who exited from two residential treatment programs was achieved by the consistent application of the described strategies. The enrollment and treatment phases of the study provided the environment for the use of standard follow-up and enhanced outreach methods. The applicability of the strategies to a variety of settings makes the prioritization of the follow-up methods presented a meaningful one. The role of the researcher in the reevaluation of follow-up protocols within an ethical context is discussed.
