Aftercare is an extremely important part of the post- or
ongoing-rehabilitation process. People aren't suddenly fixed in just a few
short weeks or months. There must be a strong aftercare program in place to
prevent relapse.
Some facilities offer "peace of mind" to the families sponsoring a loved one through treatment. Many addicts have tried and failed various treatment methods only to relapse, sometimes quickly after release. This can be a frustrating and heartbreaking experience to a family that just shouldered the burden of treatment. New York Drug Rehab has a few long-term private care facilities that do offer "peace of mind" guarantees. Simply stated once the addict has successfully completed the program should they falter or relapse within the first six months of release they are eligible for re-admittance at no charge. This can be of great comfort to families and addicts who have relapsed after completing previous treatment.
At some facilities a long term aftercare is suggested, some even offer this in the form of a "work exchange" program. Which is available to those who feel that intensive aftercare treatment is the best option. Once the addict has successfully completed the program and based on their performance during treatment they are eligible to apply to stay another six months. During this time they will help other addicts achieve what they have found in sobriety in exchange for a nominal salary, room and board, and aftercare treatment in a supportive environment.
These value added services are only available at a limited few private facilities and have proven to be invaluable to families and addicts. Call New York Drug Rehab at 1-866-403-8467 to find out more about these centers.
