We would like to take the time to inform you of our facility’s preventative measures we have put in place at both of our facilities.

The time spent in rehab should be put to good use. After suffering from an addiction, it’s an opportunity for the patient to straighten out issues and grab recovery time. Before leaving rehab, it’s vital to get all the knowledge and tools they can secure. This includes walking away with some definitive relapse prevention strategies. Without a proper relapse prevention plan, the ability to avoid relapse will be more difficult than it needs to be.

Types of Relapse Prevention Strategies

When patients and counselors start to develop relapse prevention strategies, they are forming a line of defense. In rehab, patients should acquire three things that will help them avoid relapses in the future. Those three things include:

Group support
Coping skills for recovery
Information about other outside resources

Group Support

It’s common for rehab clinicians and counselors to prescribe group sessions as part of a treatment plan. They do this for two reasons. First, it helps patients identify themselves as part of a group. Second, it teaches patients the value of support groups, one addict helping another. When the chips are down, group members can make all the difference in the world.

Coping Skills

One of the most obvious reasons why people abuse substances is because they can’t deal with stress and problems. A big part of substance abuse counseling is identifying issues and building coping skills to counter them. Without learning new coping skills, recovering addicts have to face their triggers with little protection. That’s a formula for relapse.

Information About Other Outside Resources

While in rehab, treatment facilities like ours give patients information about some external tools they can use to prevent relapses. Chief among these tools are things like ongoing outpatient counseling, sober or transitional living and 12-Step programs. All of these options are effective at keeping recovering addicts on the straight and narrow.
