Things To Look For When Choosing a Sober Living
Facility

• Accountability and Reputation
• Every addict looks forward to early recovery.
  During this stage, everything looks so new
  friends, daily schedule and enjoying life without
  depending on certain substances. Sometimes,
  things dont go rosy as you may think. You may
  find it difficult to adjust to your new
  lifestyle. This is why it is important to enroll
  in a sober living facility. These centers help
  recovering addict adhere to strict rules and
  regulations in order to ensure the victim does
  not deviate from their recovery practice. Many
  sober living facilities have their own strict
  rules and regulations that must be strictly
  adhered to. These include but not limited to
  curfews, mandatory house meetings, urine testing
  and some require the addict attends a 12-step
  recovery based meetings.
• Comfort
• A home is a place of comfort. Not only that, it
  should be serene, peaceful, loving and warm. This
  goes for your choice of the sober living facility
  as well. Fortunately, there are many sober living
  homes to choose from. One of the factors to
  consider is the comfort, and cleanliness of the
  facility.
• Safety
• Another major concern is safety. You can find
  useful information online with regards to the
  state of security in the chosen area. Remember to
  avoid areas with high crime rates. While
  physically inspecting sober living facilities
  meet with locals and ask questions about safety
  and security in the area. Some sober homes have
  advanced security systems and cameras installed
  for safety purpose. All these and many more are
  some of the things to consider while choosing the
  right sober living facility.

Getting Into an Outpatient Treatment Centre for
Alcohol

• An outpatient addiction treatment centre is a
  place where counsellors work closely with you in
  order to get back on the road to recovery. With
  the counselling, you learn ways to take control
  of your addiction. All you have to do is to
  schedule specific times in a week for classes.
  These classes can last for up to 12 weeks and
  some might take longer depending on how complex
  the condition.
• Ultimately, outpatient addiction treatment is
  designed specifically for those who want to get
  rid of addiction but cant stay at rehab centres
  due to personal and/or professional
  responsibilities. In most cases, youll meet
  other patients who are also taking these classes
  with you. Attending these classes will keep you
  motivated and give you hope that you too can do
  it. More so, you learn from past experiences of
  alcohol addicts and how they effectively tackled
  the situation to break away from the chains of
  addiction.

Family Addiction Programmes Finding the Right
Fit

• Inpatient or Residential Treatment
• If your loved one is extremely addicted to
  alcohol and drug use, the inpatient treatment
  programmes are a good option. In this case, the
  victim will receive treatment and detox within
  the rehabs facility for an extended period of
  time. After a successful detox program, the
  victim gets a combination of therapies that
  address the root cause of the problem.
• Just as the name implies, inpatient treatment
  programs require close monitoring hence an addict
  will have no other option than to stay in
  rehabilitation until the problem is completely
  addressed. This option is ideal for a family
  member struggling with co-occurring mental health
  issues such as depression or bipolar disorder.
