Some Help with Recovery
When alcohol or drug rehab is completed, the individual must continue to work at their recovery. At Cirque Lodge, we do not stop our efforts with residents. The residential treatment stay is completed, but we want to continually help our residents in achieving a long term sobriety. Clients are prescribed a Continuing Care Plan for the recovery process. This Plan continues the treatment efforts followed by the recovering alcoholic/addict. There are many elements of aftercare and therapy programs available for those pursuing their recovery.
Recovery from addiction requires effort. A person who is complacent in their recovery is greatly more at risk for relapsing. Continuing with help and support can be a solid means against this. This is where groups like Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous can be utilized. They are a means of relapse prevention and provide helping support along the way. Central to this recovery process is one’s connection to their higher power and maintaining that connection. 12-step support programs can be central to this.
At Cirque, we are continually finding ways to help our Alumni as they work at their recovery. We have developed an Alumni Relations department. Its purpose is to stay in touch with Alumni after they leave the facility; to make sure they are still working at recovery and providing means of help when needed. Locally, Cirque Lodge has an aftercare program those in recovery can attend. We also provide privileges and helps, like Guesting and Family Week attendance, for those who have successfully completed drug rehab here. These are means of relapse prevention, and ways we as a leading alcohol and drug rehab facility strive to help our clients in recovery.
