Are Communication Breakdowns Costing Your Program?

Discover how internal and external communication breakdowns may be undermining outcomes, straining family trust, and hurting your bottom line—before clients even complete treatment.

A no-cost, private presentation for executive leaders of adult and dual-diagnosis treatment programs

Space is limited — RSVP to reserve your spot and receive a private Zoom link.

Why This Matters

Most early discharges aren’t about clinical failure.

They’re about mismatched expectations, emotional misalignment, and communication breakdowns—between teams, families, and clients. When trust erodes, programs lose referrals, client satisfaction drops, and insurers start asking questions.

If your program serves young adults or older adults, you already know how nuanced these conversations can be. This presentation focuses on retention through communication—and how to prevent against-medical-advice departures and fractured family trust before they happen.

What You’ll Learn

You’ll leave this conversation with:

  • A framework for identifying and preventing the top 5 communication breakdowns in adult programs

  • Strategies to maintain alignment across staff, families, and clients. Even in moments of high emotion or acuity

  • Real-world examples of what happens when programs get this right—and when they don’t

  • Tools for reducing early discharges, improving long-term outcomes, and supporting insurance negotiations with stronger data
