Recovery does not come to a close when you exit the doors of a treatment facility. Instead, it’s a lifelong, ongoing process that involves making smart choices, managing stress levels and implementing healthy coping skills.
There’s no other way to say this – The rehabilitation facility you choose will influence your success in recovery.
What many clients don’t realize is that there is much more to recovery than what happens during their stay in treatment. Therefore, it’s crucial to select a program that will keep its doors open.

Doors That Never Close
At The Dunes East Hampton, we offer extended care following the completion of one of our treatment programs. We know that transitioning from our treatment facility to your home will create new challenges, but we don’t want you to feel that you have to do it alone.
Our doors never close. When you graduate from one of our treatment programs, our staff continue to stay in contact. We care about your recovery and how you’re getting along in life. We feel that by keeping these channels open, we can lower the risk of relapse. Also, it’s nice to know that you’re not alone in your journey. Regardless of what your personal life is like, you always have a support team rooting for your success at The Dunes.
Components Of Our Extended Aftercare
Below are some of the components to our extended care drug rehab in New York. Your aftercare plan will be customized to your needs and may include some or all of these aspects.
- Behavioral therapy
- Family and couples therapy
- Pharmacotherapy
- Psychoeducational classes
- Relapse prevention
- Follow-ups from our staff
- Ongoing guidance and support

Following treatment, you will be placed on a customized year-long plan directed by The Dunes staff and Senior Program Consultant, Dr. Howard J. Shaffer. Your plan may be adjusted based on your progress and needs up until the 5-year mark. After this point in time, research shows that recovering addicts are stabilized and much less likely to relapse.
Distinctive Continual Care Treatment Experience
Once a part of The Dunes family, always a part of The Dunes family. We take great pride in the graduates of our treatment program, as they are testaments to what our program can do for those who are committed to recovery.
To keep with our distinctive treatment and continual care experience, we hold alumni breakfasts on Saturdays where The Dunes graduates can share their experiences with current residents. We also have off-site meeting locations for former clients, guidance through phone calls and emails and outpatient referrals to medical and psychiatric professionals.
