After you graduate from our treatment center, you won’t have to face recovery on your own. Our aftercare services are specifically designed to help you stay on track, avoid relapse, and strengthen the life skills you’ve learned.
After graduating from treatment at The Recovery Village Salem, our thorough aftercare planning will connect you with the right people and resources to support your continued recovery. Your personalized aftercare plan is tailored to meet your unique needs, optimizing your path to long-term success.
As you prepare to leave our facility, our team ensures you’re ready to sustain your sobriety. A personalized aftercare plan is key to regaining control of your life. You’re ready if:
Relapse is common during recovery, but aftercare programs play a key role in reducing the chances of it. Aftercare supports individuals by:
Teaching them how to apply coping strategies in real-life situations to manage triggers.
Offering continued therapy with counselors, psychiatrists, and sponsors to maintain progress.
Helping them focus on personal and professional goals for sustained success.
Strengthening a support system to provide accountability.
Promoting healthy living through meaningful activities and relationships.
Your aftercare planning begins as soon as you enter treatment. Our dedicated team collaborates with your case manager to develop a comprehensive aftercare plan that is customized to help you during your transition out of our care.
After discharge, your case manager may check in periodically to ensure your well-being and revise your aftercare plan if necessary.
The risk of relapse remains present even weeks, months, or years after finishing a formal rehabilitation program. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) reports that the relapse rate for drug addiction falls between 40-60%, with alcohol addiction often showing higher rates. However, as time goes by in recovery, the chances of relapse gradually decrease.
At The Recovery Village, we emphasize the importance of long-term recovery by designing our programs to instill the skills required for lasting wellness. In the beginning stages of treatment, patients adapt to sobriety, work to shift negative thought patterns and behaviors, and address the underlying factors contributing to their substance use disorder. Following medical detox and residential care, they progress to increasingly independent levels of treatment, such as partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient programs. This allows individuals to build autonomy, establish a strong support system, and achieve deeper self-awareness and personal growth.
After these levels of care are completed, the transition to aftercare begins. Aftercare represents the move from formal treatment to ongoing recovery beyond our facility. Before discharge, a collaborative effort involving counselors, psychiatrists, psychologists, and physicians, alongside the case manager, ensures the creation of a personalized and comprehensive aftercare plan.
We’re here to address any inquiries, verify your insurance benefits, and arrange personalized treatment that suits your needs.
