Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Scotland, MD.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Scotland are managed by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
