Aftercare

Success of treatment depends heavily on the availability of continued support. Fort Lauderdale Hospital is firmly committed to the process of maintaining healthy living with skills learned in the treatment process. As such, several of the programs provide weekly aftercare meetings for patients who participated in treatment. These meetings are held at the hospital and are facilitated by Program Staff. While not a therapy group, these supportive meetings provide former patients with an opportunity to meet others with similar problems and share their experience, strength, and hope. Attendance at aftercare meetings is purely voluntary and is completely free of charge. We are proud to note that several program alumni continue to come to aftercare meetings several years after their treatment episode. They continue to gain support while serving as an example to others that treatment does work.
