Summary

This study looks at whether a six-session recovery program plus a home telehealth service can help veterans with alcohol or drug problems drink less and stay in treatment. About 195 veterans in a VA psychiatric unit will be assigned to one of three groups: the recovery program, the telehealth program, or standard care. Researchers will track alcohol use, drug use, and treatment attendance for three months after discharge.
