How We Help Patients

PHILOSOPHY:

 

It doesn’t take you overnight to become an addict.  So why should treatment limit your recovery to 30, 60 or 90 days.  Here at Focus On Today, we believe in continuous care for you, as long as you need it when you need it.  Continued support can be provided on many different levels based on the individual’s need.  We will provide mentors and life-coaches for healthy growth.  Our Outpatient Services doesn’t end when your insurance runs out, or when you feel better.  Our patients always have a home with Focus On Today, with the ability to use our services, resources, mentoring and life coaching.  “Our Patients become part of our family and family stands by you and supports you”.
