Abstract
The G-CHIME model offers a versatile framework to use in addiction treatment services. As a comprehensive model, attentive to the components of wellbeing considered necessary for a successful and protracted recovery, it sets the parameters for a holistic view of support and treatment that endorses a healthy and positive recovery lifestyle. For practitioners, it offers a framework that can aid understanding of client and service user experience, provide theoretical and practical input into intervention design and offer guidance on what can be considered as a successful clinical endpoint. For people in recovery, knowledge of the model highlights important facets of recovery and a way to appraise where work is needed to strengthen it, and for researchers, it offers suggestion of what can studied to improve recovery outcomes and advance knowledge of addiction recovery.
