Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - West Brentwood, NY.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in West Brentwood are managed by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse recovery facility.
