Rehab centers which offer residential treatment with an added option in relation to aftercare, with additional outpatient addiction rehabilitation services, can be ideal for some people in St. Thomas. For example, for those people who have not had success at remaining relapse free following outpatient treatment or those who have relapsed in residential or other programs when no additional continuum of care was done. Relapse is not uncommon when a person has suffered with a chronic long-term addiction problem, so residential plus outpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities offer a new approach which will increase the chances for an effective recovery from the beginning of their treatment until they are entirely amalgamated back into a drug free lifestyle on their own with a support system to encourage this.
When a person is attending a residential rehabilitation facility they are in a much better position to receive the services essential to their recovery, and to be able to stay drug free while they are in treatment. This is not always what happens with outpatient treatment when the person chooses this as a main treatment method, simply due to the fact that they have access to drugs and alcohol if something is triggered and they are not in a position to get support. Relapse is tremendously less likely for a person who receives aggressive and personalized treatment in a residential program, and then continues to be involved in outpatient drug and alcohol treatment offered by residential programs who devise a treatment plan that will help them smoothly transition back into the real world. Residential plus outpatient substance abuse treatment facilities help clients devise an aftercare plan that may include frequent follow-up visits with counselors who can refer them to services that may help them establish their lives in a way that will support the clean and sober life they want to lead, such as services to help them obtain employment, get medical and mental services, receive education resources, etc.
