Continuing Care / Aftercare

The goal of Mountainside’s Continuing Care is to provide the necessary guidance, support and therapeutic follow up to enable each client to effectively utilize the tools and various support systems that they take with them after they have completed inpatient treatment. This expertise and follow up helps to ensure that each client is afforded the best opportunity for a lasting recovery.

The commitment to go through inpatient treatment is the foundation for a lasting recovery, and the initial steps that one makes after treatment helps to ensure long term success. Mountainside’s Continuing Care Program ensures that each client gets the necessary individualized aftercare plan and optional follow up communication necessary to provide a framework for success.

Our Continuing Care departmemt works collaboratively with the each client’s counselor and develops an aftercare plan that works to meet the specific needs and goals of each client. The components of an individual’s plan may include weekly follow up “check ins”, 12-step meetings, out-patient treatment, a sober living situation, individual or family counseling, physician appointments, medication follow up and other options. Our Continuing Care Department helps facilitate the travel and logistical arrangements, when appropriate, to ensure that each client has a seamless path to their continuing care. Mountainside is in constant contact with a vast network of proven aftercare treatment options and resources to ensure that the highest quality of care is delivered to each client.
