Since Personal Recovery Assistants become an integral part of our clients’ lives, it is imperative that the match be the right one. We examine each client’s unique needs, challenges and lifestyles. Then, we identify Personal Recovery Assistants who are the right match. For example, if a client is into golf, extreme sports or other special interests, we find Personal Recovery Assistants who share in those activities.

Safe Transitions

Traveling to or returning from a treatment center can be very emotional and challenging. Often, the road to recovery is blocked with fear and anxiety. The first three to seven days after discharge from a treatment center is a high-risk period of early recovery.

Our Personal Recovery Assistants accompany clients during these transition periods--helping to increase the success of the journey to long-term recovery.

Finding Those Who Understand the Client's Challenges and Lifestyle.

How do we find the right Certified Personal Recovery Assistant for each client?

With offices on both coasts, Hired Power has established more than  75 Certified Personal Recovery Assistants across the country. We work with the clinical team and treatment coordinator to identify the specific needs of each individual. (go straight to the source - the referring treatment professional and our clients-delete).

Assigning a Hired Power Certified Personal Recovery Assistant of the same gender is essential. Unless it is otherwise clinically indicated our services are always gender specific.

Hired Power Certified Personal Recovery Assistants become an integral part of our clients’ lives-- it is imperative that the match be the right one. We examine each client's unique needs, challenges and lifestyles. Then, we identify Certified Personal Recovery Assistants who are the best match.

For example, if a client is struggling with addiction to prescription pain medication and travels for business, we find a sober assistant experienced with the pain and struggle of the client’s needs.

Our Hired Power Certified Personal Recovery Assistants have had thorough background checks, undergo random drug screening and are covered with professional liability insurance.
