Residential Treatment
During their stay, clients receive intensive treatment for addiction
and alcoholism, including goal-oriented treatment planning, one-on-one
counseling, group therapy, educational lectures, relapse prevention
groups, and specific components designed for individual clients
on a case-by-case basis. Clients attend 12-Step meetings in the
community and “outside” 12 step meetings brought in-house
as well.
Our expert clinical staff consists of professional, certified counselors
and case managers trained in the use of the American Society of
Addiction Medicine’s patient placement and continued stay
criteria. The competency level of the clinical staff meets and exceeds
International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium standards
and requirements for alcoholism and drug abuse counselors.
The goal of this program is to help the client achieve and sustain
long-term sobriety. Staff works with the client as a team, teaching
them the tools integral to becoming self-sufficient, contributing
members of society. Presenting problems are identified, strengths
and weaknesses ascertained, and specific problem areas targeted.
Family members are strongly encouraged to be involved in the treatment
process and participate in our family
education program groups held on Saturdays at our treatment
centers. Support Systems Homes helps our residents develop management
skills that will not only assist them during this initial stabilization
period, but also help them achieve the creative potential in their
continuing recovery to design their own solutions.
As in all Support Systems Homes’ services and programs, clients
are treated with utmost dignity and respect.
