Alcohol and Drug Rehab with Extended Care
Alcohol or drug rehab at Cirque Lodge starts with a 30-day program. For some, this may not be enough time in an addiction treatment setting. For those who require additional rehab help, Cirque offers extended care. Prior to completing that first 30-days, residents and their family can work with counselors on whether additional time is needed in alcohol or drug rehab. More time in this type of setting greatly increases the chance at a long term sobriety. Many programs are changing to a 90-day format to more successfully help clients. At Cirque, we leave this option up to the resident and their family, but provide continuing and extended care when needed.
All alcohol and drug rehab is based on the needs of the individual at Cirque Lodge. For residents in extended care, this personalized approach continues with the help and support of our unique and effective program. Residents still work personally with a primary counselor, while additional elements of social and recovery programs are introduced. It is a continuance in stepping forward with the recovery process and not just reliving the 30-day program over again.
The 12-step program is a large part of treatment to those in extended care. The focus is to help individuals have a solid foundation of the initial steps. Once this established, the concepts of the 4th and 5th steps are introduced. These steps involve individuals taking a personal inventory. In the evenings, extended care residents become more involved in 12-step meetings and working with a sponsor. Time in sobriety is needed to obtain successful recovery. Our extended care program can be the time needed for our residents to achieve this.
