Google Added Free, Trusted Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment to Google Recover Together website this National Recovery Month

Shatterproof

Google is now featuring the Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment, a new online resource created by Shatterproof, the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) and OpenBeds, an Appriss Health company, on their Recover Together website . The online resource features a set of consumer-friendly, clinically validated questions to assess the needs of a person with addiction and produce guidance on the type of treatment that is most appropriate for them. The free resource is available nationwide at a time when the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the addiction crisis, with drug overdose rates surging across the country. Google is helping to meet individuals and families where they are already searching for addiction treatment, online. The thirteen-question assessment was added as a new resource for Recovery Month to the Recover Together website , launched in 2019. Data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health show that only 1 in 10 people who need treatment for addiction, receive it. Far fewer individuals receive quality, evidence-based care. Google is helping to bridge the treatment gap by adding the assessment to their website and assisting those seeking treatment to obtain the appropriate level of care. In addition, Google is creating videos featuring individuals with lived experience to help families navigate the daunting process of finding care for loved ones. Currently, many people searching for addiction treatment don’t know where to start. Instead of selecting a treatment setting based on clinical guidance, they are swayed by high-priced internet advertisements or misconceptions about what addiction treatment “should” be. The new Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment will describe to users the type of treatment setting, for example outpatient treatment or residential, and other features to search for based on their needs. By increasing the consumer’s knowledge on where to start, the resource not only empowers patients and families but puts them on the right path for improved outcomes. “We applaud Google for adding a link to the Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment to their Recover Together website , making this trusted resource available to so many,” said Shatterproof Executive Vice President, Steve D’Antonio. “Treatment of a substance use disorder is not ‘one size fits all’ and by helping to identify the appropriate type of care we can greatly increase the chances of success.” The anonymous ATNA assessment asks a variety of questions related to substance use, health, and environment. The output of the assessment offers guidance on the treatment type an individual should start with as they seek treatment. “It is incredibly challenging to navigate the intricacies of the behavioral health system in the US, especially at a time of crisis,” shared Nishi Rawat, M.D., senior vice president at Appriss Health and co-founder of OpenBeds. “We hope that this tool will help people take the important first step toward making an informed decision about the right type of treatment for themselves or their loved one.” “Addiction is a treatable, chronic medical disease involving complex interactions among brain circuits, genetics, the environment, and an individual’s life experiences. The severity of this illness can vary significantly from person to person and therefore the type and intensity of treatment should be matched to each patient’s needs,” said Paul H. Earley, MD, DFASAM, president of ASAM. “The ASAM Criteria® provides an evidence-based framework for determining the right level of care and tailoring that care to the individual patient. The Addiction Treatment Needs Assessment, which is based on The ASAM Criteria , is an important tool for helping patients understand where to begin their search for care.” ### About Shatterproof: Shatterproof is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to reversing the course of the addiction crisis in America.

5 Tips to Turn Your CEO into a Telehealth Thought Leader

Merritt Group

Sporadic tweets, the occasional blog post, or distributing a one-off press release and believing that, “if you write it, they will come,” simply does not work when it comes to establishing industry thought leadership. For a company to be seen as an innovator in telehealth, it’s vital that you have a holistic strategy for positioning your CEO (or other execs) in the public eye. But building credibility and clout is not as easy as just “being there.” He or she must demonstrate a willingness to take a stand on critical (and sometimes controversial) telehealth issues and be a sentinel for where telehealth delivery is headed. Here are five tips for helping your company stand out in the crowded market by positioning your CEO as a true thought leader. Define Your Thought Leader’s Brand CEOs (and their personalities) come in all shapes and sizes. Before doing anything else, the CEO and communications team must work together to understand and define the executive’s brand and tone of voice. Research shows that 90 percent of consumers view authenticity as an important factor when choosing brands to support. Your CEO’s personal brand should be true to their own personality, strengths and vision—both personally and professionally. At Merritt Group, we do custom persona building to help build an executive’s persona, as well as the channels that will be most effective to communicate with audiences through. For example, is the CEO a medical provider? An academic? A technical innovator? What are they passionate about? What is their vision? Are they casual or formal? Pragmatic or idealistic? The answers to these questions determine the topics, channels and opportunities most appropriate to deliver the thought leadership platform and your CEO’s message. Have a Compelling and Consistent Point of View Nobody wants to hear more of the same. Help your CEO flip norms on their head, take a counter-intuitive approach and be edgy . Audiences want a fresh take, so position your CEO as the leading authority to listen to. To develop a unique voice and point of view (POV), use tools such as BuzzSumo and Google Trends to search for trending topics and identify ones that are most important to your target audiences — such as providers, medical professionals and insurers. From there, develop a solid message platform (value proposition, elevator pitch, positioning statements, proof points, etc.) to determine how those topics are discussed externally—from industry or customer challenges to competitive differentiators—and the unique perspective the CEO adds to the discussion. Where possible, infuse new data and research into your messaging to back your POV to add something new to the conversation and lend credibility. Update and refine the CEO platform as needed, but the key messages should always be clear and consistent with supporting talking points or soundbites to match. Whether it’s a virtual webinar, an op-ed, a media interview or LinkedIn post, any public remarks from the CEO should reflect the central message of his or her key POV. CEO thought leadership is most effective when it’s consistent across all channels. Master the Art of the Soundbite Thought leadership isn’t just about what you say, it’s also about how you say it. With the CEO’s personal brand, tone of voice and unique perspective defined, it’s time to focus on their delivery. As much as your CEO wants to pontificate on their favorite topics, media train your CEO to talk in short, punchy phrases that have a greater likelihood of being picked up by media—and understood by customers. Work out those quotes in advance alongside your messaging platform and put your executives in the “hot seat” to practice. Conducting mock interviews can help refine their delivery skills, but also get executives comfortable with key message points so delivery is more natural and powerful. Keep practicing the key messages and soundbites until it becomes second nature. Drive Home Thought Leadership via Earned, Paid and Owned Channels Your perfect soundbites mean nothing if no one can hear or see them. Whether your buyer is reading an online article, listening to a podcast or watching a publication video, your CEO/execs need to be front and center. Develop PR platforms for your executives around key telehealth issues and trends and bring those to market in leading healthcare publications your buyers are reading, such as Healthcare Innovation , Modern Healthcare and others. Focus your thought leadership campaign on multiple strategies, including proactive media pitches, bylines, rapid response, paid content, (virtual) events and social media platforms. For example: Leverage breaking news stories, data and timely hooks to connect to develop media pitches, op-eds and bylines that showcase your CEO’s fresh perspective. Use your company’s owned channels to create thought leadership-driven assets like blog posts, LinkedIn content and videos that use the CEO’s platform to deliver the company’s vision and approach to the market. Have your CEO meet your prospects and peers where they are online, from landing a keynote at now virtual conferences like ATA2020 and HIMSS21 to hosting an intimate remote roundtable discussion with press and/or analysts on the latest telehealth trends. Use paid promotion via social, SEM and programmatic media buying as a complementary tool to amplify the CEO content you create. Stay Engaged A proper thought leadership campaign takes time and effort—building credibility and visibility doesn’t happen overnight. To achieve the ultimate goal of reporters coming to your CEO for comment and perspective (versus you pitching them ), you’ll need to keep your foot on the gas. This includes reading news headlines and social media feeds to proactively develop commentary that showcases the CEO’s perspective on important issues through some of the tactics above. Above all else, make sure you’re regularly checking in with your CEO and adjusting your efforts as the business evolves. Your campaign will lack authenticity if it doesn’t reflect their current thinking, and key audiences can tell when thought leaders are truly knowledgeable and passionate about a topic (or not).

Shatterproof , a national nonprofit organization dedicated to reversing the addiction crisis in the United States, is uniting communities across the country to celebrate, honor, support and remember loved ones who’ve been affected by or died from addiction by creating a virtual event, The Shatterproof Stronger Than Addiction Challenge .

Her willingness to share of herself through her music will be a gift to our participants, many who have also lost loved ones or who are in recovery,” said Kirsten Suto Seckler, Chief Marketing Officer, Shatterproof.

In conjunction with state stay-at-home orders, we have seen a 17.5% increase in fatal overdoses over the same time period last year. There is a clear correlation between the pandemic and overdose deaths. The isolation, stress, and economic devastation of COVID-19 is fueling America's addiction crisis. “I look forward to coming together with Shatterproof, an organization dedicated to reversing the addiction crisis in the U.S., and all of the people who been impacted by addiction who are coming together this September to make change.

The Socially and Environmentally Conscious Facemask--the New Fashion Essential

Flash Public Relations

The fashion industry has been responsible for more carbon emissions than international shipping and flights combined and labor practices can be questionable. Meet Stephanie Wagner , an entrepreneur who is changing all that—beginning with what has become a ‘new fashion essential,’ the facemask. Her company, ForTheFeel , is making great strides in personal and shared safety. What many don't know is that disposable surgical masks are jammed packed with toxic chemicals that studies have shown to be harmful to our environment AND human health. Masks can have ingredients such as: ● Petroleum ● Formaldehyde ● Azo Dyes ● Heavy Metals ● Plastic ● Ammonium Compounds ● Urea Resins ● Formaldehyde ● Phenols ● Quaternary Ammonium Compounds ● Organo-silver ….. and more These chemicals are sitting square over one’s nose and mouth—being breathed in. Unlike the nutrition facts on the back of our favorite foods, clothing and face masks don’t come with a conveniently itemized list of ingredients. Add to that that disposable masks can take up to 450 years to break down in the environment, and is affecting wildlife when they get caught in the ear loops. Synthetic particles don’t biodegrade. So when clothes are dumped into a landfill, toxic synthetic fibers pollute water sources and soil. Plus, ⅔ of all clothing sold in the U.S. is made from Fossil Fuels. The solution: ForTheFeel. Masks that FEEL good to both people and our planet. Their plant-based masks are made with 100% ORGANIC DYES--SAFE for all and are super soft and breathable. The masks are breathable and make it much easier to wear in comfort and without causing 'maskne.' The materials decompose in less than a year if discarded, and they are CDC approved and worn by doctors in one of the nation’s largest healthcare systems. ForTheFeel masks are made in America. All workers who are involved in the production (cutting, sewing, and dying) of ForTheFeel masks are paid 37% above the living wage, never handle toxic chemicals, and are treated with the utmost respect (especially during times of COVID).

Company Donates Products to Shelters to Help Senior Dogs Improve Quality of Life

Flash Public Relations

September is Animal Pain Awareness Month. Every year, 3.3 million dogs enter shelters throughout the U.S., with older dogs, or those with mobility problems, much less likely to be adopted. Shelters are overcrowded, and especially challenging for senior dogs or dogs with stiff joints and restricted movements. When choosing a dog to adopt, owners consider age and playfulness as key determining factors.* This puts older and less mobile dogs at a disadvantage. As part of its mission to keep pets ‘active for life,’ YuMOVE launched its national GET MOVING campaign designed to help aging and less mobile shelter dogs be more comfortable, active and enjoy a better quality of life. YuMOVE is the UK’s #1 dog joint supplement,**which recently launched in America. YuMOVE has already donated to over 400 shelters across America, each housing dozens of dogs, from NYC to Los Angeles, offering its clinically-proven*** joint supplement YuMOVE to help ease stiff joints and improve mobility within 6 weeks. And there were improvements, coast to coast. Among those enjoying the benefits in Texas are: · Karen Cole, Executive Director and Founder of Lizzy’s Animal Hospice in Austin, Texas , started Harley, a three-year-old Terrier mix, on the product after a devastating car accident left him with a fractured pelvis, damaged hips and no chance of surgery. He recovered on his own by putting more weight on his front legs, but according to Cole, “the YuMOVE product has helped Harley improve little by little, day by day.” · Miniature Schnauzer Rescue of Houston -- Purebred pups can have joint problems associated with the breed. These doggies are enjoying a better quality of life and chance of adoption. · La Porte Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas · Legacy Humane Society in Dallas, Texas · Lake Dallas Animal Services in Dallas Texas · City of Joshua Animal Shelter in Dallas, Texas -- are all keeping their senior rescues much more comfortable while they await their forever home.
