Continuing Care
Continuing Care
Aftercare planning begins as soon as residents are admitted to any of our programs. Our treatment team works together to evaluate ongoing needs and to prepare residents for their return home. Our residents discover the power within themselves. They take an active role in planning their aftercare and establishing a support system for their continued recovery.
To further prepare themselves, residents participate in weekly relapse prevention sessions. During these sessions, they learn strategies to cope with the inevitable struggles that they will experience on their journey through recovery.
Our continuing care coordinator works individually with each residents to provide them with the resources they need before leaving one of our programs. Our alumni coordinator will contact each resident numerous times within the first year after treatment to ensure they are staying on track with their recovery. If additional resources are needed, our team of staff members is simply a phone call away.
