Interventions

DEVICE

Therapeutic Education System (TES)

The TES program is made of modules about ways to prevent substance use, such as how to refuse drugs and alcohol, how to cope with thoughts about using, and how to make the best possible decisions for a person's mental health. Each module takes less than 30 minutes to complete. Modules may contain videos or other interactive media. At the end of each module, there are questions about the material.

OTHER

Treatment as Usual (TAU)

Standard treatment comprises a psychiatrist-led interdisciplinary team as well as face-to-face group counseling for substance use and skills for improving general mental health. There will be no change to the routine care (treatment at usual \[TAU\]) provided to patients on the service.
