Sandstone Care Treatment Outcomes

At Sandstone Care, we do more than measure outcomes. We practice Measurement-Based Care (MBC) with all our clients, which is the gold standard in behavioral health care excellence and allows us to ensure we provide effective treatment.

Measurement-Based Care For Better Outcomes

At regular intervals throughout treatment, our clinical team tracks each client’s treatment progress by reviewing their responses from two scientifically valid psychometric scales:

Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), a measure of depressive symptoms
General Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7), a measure of anxiety symptoms

Incorporating psychometric data into clinical practice significantly supports treatment completion. MBC allows us to personalize treatment programming and increases the likelihood of long-term success for those we serve.

Our Treatment Gets Real Results

At Sandstone Care, we don’t just claim to improve people’s mental health – we’ve got the numbers to back it up.

61% of clients who started treatment with us reported moderate-to-severe anxiety at admission (as measured by the GAD-7). After successfully completing treatment, that number dropped to just 27% – that’s a 56% decrease in anxiety symptoms!

With decreased anxiety, clients’ overall quality of life can improve, along with improvement in sleep quality, social support functioning, and better control over stress.

Lower Depression, Higher Quality of Life

When we say our treatment creates real change in real people, we mean it.

Our data analyses support that Sandstone Care treatment programs significantly reduce depression symptoms in people who complete treatment with us. Upon admission, 41% of clients reported severe depression symptoms, as measured by the PHQ-9. Following successful treatment completion, reported severe depression had decreased to just 9%!

While this may just look like percentages, for our alumni, these are life-changing numbers. Reduction in depression can result in a higher quality of life, improved relationships, and increased productivity in school or work.

Our Alumni Enjoy Lasting Recovery

Readmission rates are strong indicators of how effective treatment is. Readmission occurs when someone returns to treatment within a certain time after being discharged from care.

According to data from Insurance Provider 1, Sandstone Care consistently achieves readmission rates that outperform the target rates used to define top-quality providers. Insurance Provider 2 provided even more recent data showing that out of 105 clients who completed treatment, 98% did not need to be readmitted!

These notably low readmission rates highlight how Sandstone Care’s treatment effectiveness far surpasses that of even the highest-quality providers. And for our alumni, they illustrate how treatment at Sandstone helped them reach sustainable and long-lasting recovery.

Our Clients Complete Treatment

According to data from a second insurance company, 80% of Sandstone Care clients successfully completed Intensive Outpatient Programming (IOP).

This is almost double the insurance company’s measure of the national aggregate average which indicates 43% of patients typically finish such programs. Our 80% completion rate also surpasses this insurance company’s target treatment completion goal of 45% which is used to determine high-quality providers.

Sandstone Care’s ability to achieve such high completion rates in our IOP programming is a testament to our holistic treatment methods, dedicated staff, and personalized approach to treatment – all of which translates to better patient recovery outcomes.

Our Alumni Keep in Touch

A strong indicator of successful recovery is whether or not clients engage in aftercare follow-up. This is when clinicians reach out to check on their clients after completing treatment. At Sandstone Care, we offer an valuable alumni network to support our clients well after they complete our programs. 

According to data from a third insurance company, an impressive 69% of Sandstone Care clients follow up with their clinicians during the first 7 days after they discharged from treatment. This is higher than the expected insurance target rate of 63.6%, which is their benchmark for high-quality treatment providers.

Sandstone Care also surpasses the top-tier standard for 30-day aftercare follow-up. The target rate is 71.4% 30 days post-treatment, while Sandstone Care’s rate stands at 76.1%. These outstanding numbers illustrate how our programming inspires a strong commitment to recovery in our patients, even after treatment.

Find Lasting Recovery With Biopsychosocial Care

At Sandstone Care, we know that you are so much more than your struggles. We understand that in order to be effective, our treatment programming needs to address all aspects of who you are. That’s where Biopsychosocial care comes in.

Biopsychosocial care is a comprehensive approach to health and well-being that addresses three interconnected aspects of a person’s life: biological, psychological, and social. Like a three-legged stool, each component is essential for maintaining overall stability and health.

By addressing these three elements during treatment, Sandstone Care takes a more holistic approach to treating mental health and addiction challenges than other treatment providers. And for people who receive treatment from us, this approach leads to better, more sustainable recovery outcomes.
