For individuals on a journey to sobriety, accountability is integral to their success. This is especially true for those involved in the justice system, where proving abstinence is not just a personal goal but a legal requirement.
The SCRAM Continuous Alcohol Monitoring® (SCRAM CAM®) bracelet is a powerful tool in this process, helping clients achieve more Sober Days and build a foundation for long-term behavior change.
What is a Sober Day?
What are Sober Days? It’s more than just a buzzword; a Sober Day is a 24-hour period in which a monitored client has no confirmed consumption of alcohol and no confirmed attempt to tamper with the SCRAM CAM bracelet or circumvent testing. SCRAM CAM’s core benefit is its ability to maximize the number of these days.
About 1% of ingested alcohol is excreted through insensible perspiration. The device, worn on the ankle, automatically tests the wearer’s sweat for alcohol every 30 minutes. This continuous monitoring eliminates the “gaps” in supervision, removing the opportunity for clients to drink around scheduled tests. This constant, non-invasive testing method acts as both a deterrent and a powerful motivator, reinforcing the commitment to abstinence.
Sober Days: Real Results
The impact is clear in the numbers. SCRAM CAM boasts a remarkable track record, with data showing that more than 99% of all clients are completely sober and compliant every day they are monitored. Additionally:
- Over one million clients have been monitored with SCRAM CAM since its inception in 2003
- Over 26,000 clients are monitored with SCRAM CAM every day
- SCRAM CAM bracelets across the world have performed over 5 billion alcohol tests
- 99.0% of the days clients are monitored with SCRAM CAM are Sober Days
For many, the SCRAM CAM bracelet becomes a “guardian angel” or a physical reminder of their goal, providing the structure and support needed to break the cycle of alcohol dependency and begin to rebuild their lives.
It’s not just about compliance for the courts—it’s about reclaiming personal health, repairing relationships, and building a foundation for a sober future.
