Recovery Oriented Systems of Care (ROSC) models recognize substance use disorders as chronic health issues requiring management throughout a lifetime.
ROSC recognizes that a person may choose multiple paths to recovery and embraces a continuum of care from prevention, treatment, and recovery to full engagement in one's family and community. The system builds upon each recovering individual’s strengths and areas of health to address their needs.
The delivery system applies recovery principles to a full range of engagement, intervention, treatment, rehabilitative, and supportive services, including health promotion and prevention services for those at risk of substance use disorders.
ROSC is marked by high accessibility and effectiveness in engaging and retaining persons in care to achieve the highest degree of stability and sustain recovery.
Services are age and gender appropriate, culturally competent, and attend to trauma and other factors that impact recovery. ROSC services should be provided within the person’s community, using natural supports whenever possible. The overarching goal of a ROSC is to assist a person in achieving mastery over recovery and gaining a meaningful sense of membership in the community.
