We want to encourage patients to develop healthy lifestyle habits, so we perform drug and/or alcohol testing both during and after detox. Regular testing reinforces the recovery process by acting both as an accountability measure and a deterrent. Testing occurs twice a week and is sent directly to our lab throughout the program.
Drug and alcohol testing is a lot like a first alert system. Testing helps prevent relapse by enabling us to know when to enact the patient’s relapse prevention plan, as determined by the individual’s unique rehabilitation program.
