Fortunately, sober living is a happy medium for patients who are not ready to resume their regular lives and are departing from inpatient treatment. To continue treatment at an inpatient treatment center would be highly impractical for a multitude of reasons. The costs would be astronomical to continue this type of treatment and too resource-intensive for the hospital. Completing treatment is a huge milestone, and we want our clients’ transition back to real life to be just as successful, which is why we have a sober living program for patients following their primary or extended care.When clients who have completed 30, 60 or 90-day treatment utilize our sober living program, they have higher success rates and transition with ease back into their everyday life. Our sober living program is a “structured living”, designed to help clients reintegrate back into life after treatment.Through Beaches Recovery’s Sober Living program, clients have:Frequent drug testingGroup and individual therapyAcademic and Career supportAccess to resources and educationA supportive communityDuring their time in sober living, clients re-acclimate into the real world while living in a safe residential environment. Clients often go to school or begin working toward their careers, creating healthy habits and routines that set them up for success. Those who complete our sober phase have higher success rates in long-lasting sobriety and are less likely to relapse while living on their own again. Sobriety is key to living a fulfilling life, and Beaches Recovery in Jacksonville, Florida (FL) is here to help achieve it!What Does Sober Living Drug Rehab Entail?There are different types of sober living drug rehab facilities. Most of the time, you’ll be in a residential drug rehab. You live, sleep, and spend all of your time at the center. Unlike typical residential treatment, however, you have more autonomy. For example, you may have your own room in a halfway house. In some cases, you’ll have your own apartment. One important thing to note about these facilities is that they aren’t homeless shelters. They are simply called homes because communal living is generally the way the facilities operate. To prevent a variety of issues, halfway houses are gender-segregated between men and women. There are also programs for LGBTQ+ individuals with other gender identities.Finally, remember that these facilities have rules. Structure is the key to success in a halfway house. The biggest rule, of course, is that there are no drugs or alcohol allowed on the premises. However, there may also be rules about curfew, food and drink, and the daily schedule. Chores will also likely be assigned because of the communal aspect of sober living facilities. Just remember that rules will be different at different facilities.Sober living homes are a structured environment. They include ongoing support. While living in the home, individuals will receive optional treatment, including:DBT or dialectical behavioral therapyCBT or cognitive behavioral therapyAnger management therapyDual diagnosis treatmentPTSD and trauma therapyRelapse prevention and support12-step recovery program meetingsDon’t wait to get your life back on track, call Beaches Recovery at 866.605.0532 today and ask about our sober living program!
