Bridging the Gap to Complete Care

Your patients trust you to guide them to the right care, especially when it comes to substance use and mental health. But you know all too well: waitlists are long, inpatient is not always realistic, and not every family can drop everything for treatment.

For many, the gap between needing help and actually getting it feels impossible to cross.

Home Based Recovery (HBR) exists to solve these issues and more. We are a 100% online recovery program designed by clinicians and people with lived experience – built to give you a credible, practical option for your patients and their loved ones.

You Need Accessible, Evidence-Based Care for Patients and Families

You want to do what is best for your patients. But every day you see the barriers getting in the way of care:

  • Local services booked up for months
  • Patients unable or unwilling to leave jobs or families for inpatient
  • Rural or remote patients with nowhere to turn close to home
  • Families desperate for support but sidelined by the system

How can you help people sooner and more effectively?

HBR Provides Recovery Support Built for Real-Life

You need recovery and mental health support options that are flexible, clinically sound, and genuinely accessible.

Home Based Recovery fills the gaps in our traditional system. We offer virtual programs that deliver the hands-on support and accountability your patients need – without the wait, travel, or cost of inpatient care. And our work extends beyond helping the individuals through our HBR for Family Members program.

Real-World Scenarios

How Healthcare Providers Use HBR

• • •
  • Bridging Waitlists
    Refer a patient facing a months-long delay for local services so they can get immediate support online.

  • Step-Down After Inpatient
    Discharge planners connect patients finishing residential treatment to Guided Path for continued daily structure at home.

  • Supporting Rural/Remote Patients
    A GP in a small town refers a patient who cannot access in-person care – HBR delivers everything virtually.

  • Helping Families Cope
    A therapist’s client is stable, but their partner is struggling; they refer the family to Safe Ground for education and boundaries.

Example: A patient presents with alcohol dependence but refuses inpatient due to family obligations. You refer them to Guided Path – daily virtual sessions tailored to their needs. Their partner joins Safe Ground. You receive consented progress updates and see improved stability at follow-up.

Who HBR is For

Home Based Recovery partners with frontline providers across Canada who need fast, credible options for patients and families when traditional services are full or out of reach.

If you’re coordinating care, managing waitlists, planning discharges, or supporting rural and remote communities, HBR gives you an evidence-based, virtual pathway you can trust.

We Work With

  • Community Health Centres (CHCs) and Indigenous Health Centres
  • Hospital discharge planners and addiction medicine consult teams
  • Emergency department social workers needing rapid follow-up options
  • Psychiatry outpatient clinics needing adjunct, skills-based support
  • Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP) providers and occupational health
  • University and college health services
  • Virtual-first primary care groups operating across provinces

Evidence-Based, Collaborative Care

You want assurance that what you are recommending works. HBR’s programs are developed by experienced clinicians and people in long-term recovery. Every patient journey includes:

  • Validated assessments and outcome tracking
  • Progress updates (with consent) so you can stay in the loop
  • Robust aftercare options to support long-term change

We see ourselves as an extension of your care team – not a replacement.


Simple Referral, Fast Access

Referring to HBR is straightforward:

  • No long forms or confusing portals
  • Fast intake – no waitlists
