Hope by the Sea offers extended care as an additional service after residential rehabilitation has been completed. For some individuals who have been suffering from drug or alcohol addiction for a long time, a more extensive treatment plan is necessary. Because the problems that result from long term chemical dependency cannot be cured over night, persons suffering from chronic addiction may need additional support and care beyond what our residential care program can offer.

In addition to the residential programs that we offer, the extended care program helps individuals retain skills to stay sober for a longer time if not forever. Our extended care plan helps addicts and alcoholics realize the difference in their quality of life over a longer period of time and are able to comprehend the severity of their disease. Our therapeutic staff helps individuals address the underlying problems that lead them to drugs and alcohol.

Additionally, the individuals involved in the aftercare program learn how to become personally responsible for their actions and how to stop a relapse before it starts. Our extended care program has the capacity to treat patients for all types of substance abuse from crack cocaine, methamphetamines, heroin, club drugs, cocaine, alcohol and prescription drugs.

We continuously utilize the 12-step program philosophy and encourage our clients to attend 12-step meetings after the residential care and aftercare programs are completed. Hope by the Sea's individualized, long-term treatment plans are highly successful in helping addicts and alcoholics live new lives in sobriety.
