We love the relationship we have with our Alumni. It is an honor and joy to celebrate in their successes and to stand by them in hardships. Here is some of what they have recently shared.
Santé Center for Healing measures client satisfaction to provide top-tier client care services to measure staff and organization performance and to improve client care experience. A self-report survey distributed to all alumni at 60, 180 and 365 days post-treatment at Santé. Results are based only on those that agreed to participate in the survey.
To the families experiencing the damaging chaos, suffering, neglect and isolation accompanying trauma, addiction and mental illness, Santé Center for Healing says "no more shame, no more silence, and you are not alone."

In 2022 we have a new way of serving families' needs:

As we are entering into 2022, many of your clients or patients will consider resolutions or personal goals for the year. Unfortunately, many of them will quickly put what they planned aside. This happens for many reasons. The resolutions or goals may have been too large, they may have seemed overwhelming, or there may have been no accounting factored into the equation.

Here are tips that your clients or patients may find helpful in setting achievable goals:

Limit the Number of Goals for the New Year
Rather than make a long list of things you want to achieve during the new year, resist the temptation and limit yourself to no more than three.

Break Things into Steps
A goal without a plan is merely a dream. Once you have your main goals, take the time to break them down into steps.

Set Up an Accountability System
This step requires that you open up and share your goals with at least one other person you feel you can trust to keep you motivated.

A New Life for the New Year
If you are dealing with mental health issues that also involve substance abuse, this is the time to think about getting help from a treatment center, such as Santé, as one of your personal goals for the new year.
How would you define rigorous honesty? It is being painstakingly accurate and free from deception. This is a recovery cornerstone and is also one of Santé's Values.

We can all struggle with being honest with ourselves, but for someone with an addiction it can seem impossible, at first. Santé's highly trained treatment team is with a client from the beginning and supports them throughout their treatment. Clients take an honest look at themselves and work on Step One - "We admitted we were powerless over alcohol-that our lives had become unmanageable." Here, we strive to establish open, honest, direct communication as it is fundamental to the healing process. We commit ourselves to helping our clients succeed in their recovery. Here's to 2022...and another year we don't give up on our clients!

You are mission-inspired and results-driven. You chose your profession and calling for all the right reasons. Your work helps people in their most hidden and painful problems every day.

The importance of your work is underscored by how incredibly hard it is. Any given day might bring massive challenges with your clients or patients. Who else is in it for all the right reasons? Who can you trust to work alongside you, providing evidence-based and trauma-resolution care? Who provides the best opportunity for long-term recovery?

Google provides 350,000,000 results when searching “addiction treatment.” This is an overwhelming number of options that you can ascertain for quality, but can your clients or patients?

They look to you to:
  • Distinguish clinical experience and expertise from nonessential amenities and impersonal call centers; 
  • Connect them to higher levels of care ready for the increasing complexity of their problems and to discover and begin to heal from the root issues underneath, therefore decreasing the likelihood of relapse; 
  • Recognize other facilities may dress the part but lack integrity.

They look to you. And you look to Santé Center for Healing for expertise, integrity and long-term recovery…for all the right reasons.
