Drug court programs do amazing work in their community. Keeping their clients accountable throughout the program is a key pillar in their success. Drug court teams have a lot of responsibilities, such as monitoring curfews. With One Steps Client Recovery App, drug courts easily track curfew. Forget the expensive ankle bracelets. Provide your clients with our Client Recovery App, making their life and your team’s life easier.
Here are three benefits of using One Step’s Client Recovery App to easily track curfew:
1.) Your staff can work more efficiently:
A huge win for drug courts that use One Step is the efficiency our platform provides them. Surveillance and Probation Officers who previously had no technological tool in their tool kit to monitor curfew had to rely on physically visiting client’s homes.
This method often meant they couldn’t consistently drop in on clients, and would need to do so randomly. Also, this wasn’t the most efficient way to monitor curfew. Surveillance and Probation Officers can’t be at a clients house every day to verify curfew, but our Client Recovery App can.
The One Step Admin Portal, which is also available on a mobile app for the staff, makes it easy for Surveillance and Probation Officers to monitor their clients and verify curfew check ins.
2.) Everyone on the team can easily track Curfew
Drug court programs consist of multi-disciplinary teams. Probation, case managers, court coordinators, attorneys, treatment services and judges.
With the One Step Admin Portal and mobile staff app, everyone on the drug court team can easily check on their clients curfew details. The Admin Portals ‘check-in’ data and location map provide the team with the accurate and timely information they need to monitor curfews with ease.
3.) The Client Recovery App makes it easy for clients, plus it’s less invasive than an ankle bracelet
Ankle bracelets have been a go to solution for electronic monitoring and curfew verification. They are expensive (usually charge you by the day), and since they are hardware that is always on the ankle, they often have maintenance issues.
Ankle bracelets can add to the stress of the program for a client. According to research from Cornell University, clients can experience stigma in public when they need to have their ankle bracelet on at all times. This stress trigger itself can be enough to cause a client to lose compliance with their program requirements.
BONUS:
Our One Step Client Recovery App helps drug courts easily monitor curfew, but can also provide on-going location tracking for any client who needs that additional level of supervision and monitoring. Best part about it is you don’t get charged extra for these features!
