Recovery advocates are individuals who guide patients in rehab facility centers through their treatments and programs. As part of the staff, they ensure patients are getting the most out of their treatments and are progressing. Often, these individuals have experienced addiction at some point in their lives and received treatment. Because they have experienced both sides of this battle, advocates for recovery can empathize with patients and help them better understand the need for treatment.
This is a key position providing direct patient care, monitoring patients' physical and emotional needs, and administratively supporting the program.
