After Care / Alumni

After Care / Alumni refers to the additional steps a client’s treatment may require after departing Bella Monte Recovery Center™ inpatient care facility. Our recommended “step-down” programs offer intensive outpatient, sober living, and outside therapy options to support a smooth client transition into a sober life.

Understandably, each client has individual needs in relation to family, children, employment and extenuating circumstances. The Bella Monte Recovery Center™ team assists in accommodating and tailoring each plan to fit a client’s needs in supporting a healthy future.
