DWI Clients - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Fishers Island, NY.

DWI clients in rehab need specific requirements met to satisfy the conditions of their court sentencing. Treatment programs which help satisfy these demands and terms, which are usually far more lenient than traditional sentencing which would include heavy fines and jail time, are available in Fishers Island to deliver educational services, counseling, and further evaluation for serious substance abuse issues.

Education is a primary treatment tool used at rehabs treating DWI offenders. There are different levels of alcohol education which can vary by state. Level I education classes typically consist of 12 hours of education about the effects and dangers of alcohol and drugs. This is the what someone with a first conviction or someone under 21 will commonly be required to complete. Level II DWI classes would consist of both substance abuse education and group therapy at a court approved program. How long a client will need to be in therapy depends on a few factors, which can include the number of DWI's the person has had, and the severity of the violation. Most often clients will be required to take the Level II classes and therapy unless their blood-alcohol level was very low when they were arrested and there were no other serious infractions when the offender was arrested.
