Setting You Up for Success
Aftercare Planning & Beyond
What Happens After Rehab?
Aftercare Planning in Drug & Alcohol Addiction Treatment
You’ve hit bottom and decided to make a change. You went through the emotionally and physically exhausting process of detoxing your system. Then you spent considerable and highly productive time and energy in residential inpatient treatment getting back on even footing.
Now what?
You just take a hop, skip and a jump back into regular life?
Not so fast.
While rehab sets you up with a myriad of ways to deal with the stresses that come with daily life, you’re in a bit of a heightened state of vulnerability after rehab. You’ve been removed from your day to day life to focus all your energy on treatment. Throwing caution to the wind and going full steam without a safety net is asking for trouble.
The relapse rate for substance use disorders is in the 40-60% range according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Scary numbers.
Recovery doesn’t end when the formal treatment program does. It’s a long and ongoing process. More a journey than an event.
Safeguarding and prioritizing your commitment to sobriety is crucial for the long haul but it’s particularly important in those early days after treatment ends. That’s what aftercare treatment is all about. Creating a personalized plan, specific to your unique needs. A plan that helps you maintain your recovery and hard-won sobriety.
Aftercare helps you build a support system that you can rely on and provides you with a safe place to go when you need it most.

Preparing for Life in recovery
Why is Aftercare Needed?
The world throws a lot at us and how we react to it is squarely within our control.
In an earlier life, the coping mechanism you’d typically default to during times of adversity was drugs or alcohol. After treatment, that’s no longer an option, the substances replaced with a rejuvenated mind, body and spirit and a life grounded in self-care.
Aftercare planning is needed to make sure you can stay that course.
Inpatient care is a period free from triggers by design. The real world is not so accommodating but having a well thought out plan makes dealing with those things much easier.
You don’t have to panic when you have a plan.
And a plan keeps you accountable both to yourself and your sobriety.

Staying Connected to Recovery
The Importance of Participating in Our Alumni Program
First of all, what exactly is an alumni program?
Basically, it’s our way of keeping clients in contact with our staff and as well as other folks that have gone through our program.
The importance of participating lies in the commonality of your shared experience with those other clients. You’ve gone through the same thing and thus already have a deep understanding of where the others are coming from. It’s a formidable foundation on which to build supportive, meaningful and lasting friendships.
Rehab is a hard and profoundly life-changing, transformative experience and people that haven’t gone through it simply won’t fully understand where you’re coming from. There will always be that gap. Those who have not only been through rehab but have been through the same rehab as you…now that’s a powerful connection.
The various events and get-togethers we organize also serve to help you avoid social isolation, a major contributor to potential relapse.
On top of building a network of sober friends and acquaintances who genuinely get you, our alumni program also keeps you connected with the Bayshore Retreat staff that you’ve built such strong relationships with. The care you have for them doesn’t end when your treatment does and likewise, our team remains deeply invested in your well-being.
