Real-world results and impacts

Crossroads Drug & Alcohol Addiction Treatment Service in Arizona sought digital therapeutic tools to create a complementary package of user-friendly digital therapies with evidenced efficacy for an all-male group with a chronic relapse history and co-occurring mental health disorders. Be Mindful's supportive, on-demand nature and the empowering self-management skills learned have enable Crossroads' clients to utilise them independently as they reintegrate into the community while on the Crossroads outpatient programme, and beyond, helping to prevent relapse.

Recognising the needs of its members, the library sought to establish a wellbeing initiative and realised that digital channels could provide an easy way to extend their services and support mental health in the community. The library soon discovered Be Mindful and recognised that this program is one of very few that met the stringent standards of the UK's National Health Service. Following a quick setup, in February 2021 Stillwater Public Library launched Be Mindful as part of the library's stress-reduction health literacy efforts. While there were important learnings from the rollout, the key takeaway was that every lesson viewed can be life-enhancing and for those who followed the program through to completion, the statistical results have been extremely positive.

In 2012, Buckinghamshire Chronic Pain Service became one of the first NHS services to provide Pathway through Pain to its patients and offer both face-to-face and digital Pain Management Programmes (PMPs). Pathway through Pain continues to be an integral part of the service, providing patients with self-empowerment and control over their treatment plan, while significantly reducing waiting lists and administrative time for the clinical team.
