Recovery Homes for Lifelong Recovery

Staying at a recovery home can be one of the most important steps you can take to on the path to lifelong recovery. The battle through addiction can be a daunting task for anyone, yet with the proper tools and help getting and staying clean can become much more manageable.

Benefits of a Recovery Home vs. Rehab Alone

Drug detox and rehabilitation can do wonders for a person stuck in the depths of an addiction. It takes them out of the toxic surroundings for a bit and helps them get clean – but staying clean is another matter.

People with addictions generally build a life around them that helps feed that addiction; from friends to the places they choose to live. While rehab is great and can be the answer for some, many times it takes building out new habits and living in a friendly sober place away from all of the old temptations.

A recovery house provides you with a safe drug-free environment with like-minded individuals on the same path to recovery. There is an emphasis on spirituality, connecting with others, and learning new habits / ways of thinking to make it through the most difficult times in life without using drugs or alcohol.

3 Things to Look for When Choosing a Recovery House

Choosing to live in a recovery house can be the difference between staying sober and going back to your old ways. With so many types of housing and options available, choosing the RIGHT recovery housing can be a daunting task. To make things easier, we’ve compiled 3 of the most important things to look for when choosing a sober living house.

Finding the Right Recovery House

      1. Experienced Staff – The early phases of sobriety can sometimes be overwhelming. Although early recovery can be exciting, it’s very important to find recovery houses that staff disciplined and experienced people. The recovery staff’s reputation for working with addiction and the ability to maintain accountability can be hugely important in both making sure you or your loved one feel safe and secure and are held accountable during the recovery process.
      2. Safety & Comfort – With stays ranging from 30 days to 1 year depending on the recovery home, it’s very important to find a place where you feel both comfortable and safe. Although cleanliness is a must, the amount of people living in that home is a pretty close second. It can actually be helpful to have roommates and less privacy, however having an over-packed house can leave you feeling uncomfortable and hinder the recovery process.
      3. Structure – Some kind of structure is important to ensure each of the residents is taking the necessary steps to care for their recovery. Recovery houses may have curfews, mandatory meetings, and even regular unannounced breathalyzer and urine screenings.
