Acadia Recovery has a ten-bed unit staffed by registered nurses 24 hours a day. Extended Shelter Extended Shelter is a component of care which provides a structured treatment environment for clients who have either completed a Detoxification program or who need a high level of support to enable them to remain sober for a period before moving back into the community or continued treatment. The Intensive Outpatient Program is a component which provides an intensive and structured program of alcohol and drug assessment, diagnosis and treatment services in a setting which does not include an overnight stay. It consists of a structured sequence of multi-hour clinical and educational sessions, scheduled for three or more days per week with a minimum of nine hours per week. These groups include work on triggers, relapse prevention, life skills, stress reduction, and other recovery topics.
Schedules are individualized.
These services may also be provided to the families of alcohol and drug abusers and other concerned persons, whether or not the primary abuser is receiving treatment. Aftercare Aftercare is a treatment component offered as an extension to other treatment programs, to provide individuals with group support. Aftercare services are offered to clients who have completed the intensive phase of a rehabilitation program, and are not offered to the general public. This component is not intended to be a replacement or a substitute for outpatient care. The Aftercare Program at Acadia Recovery Community has a number of groups which meet on weeknight evenings for one and half hours once a week.
