My boyfriend is about to finish rehab and is going into an after care house maybe like a sober house. This has been very hard on me, but i know we needed this in order to get married and just live a normal life. I really have no clue what to expect with him going here. Does anyone know if phone calls and visits are allowed and how long does one stay in one?
today is the next step in the journey......paw
Hey, PAW, I've been looking for you...I saw that you answered a post from someone whose wife had been to, First Recovery in , Hollywood Fl, and had a very bad experience...I checked it out for my son and it seemed to have everything we need..have you heard any positives about it?...the amenities are great, location perfect, and services a good as well...I've been looking for a while as our last placement was not good, not good at all...(that's what happens when you don't do the legwork yourself), we're using the 1/2way house part of it, not the rehab, as we already did that...I've got to get him into a 1/2way before he uses again...he's been out for 2wks...anyone with info is welcome to answer...

From my own experience with in-patient treatment, there is visitation, and phone calls are allowed. Halfway homes are viewed as a "half-way" point between treatment and the outside world, so I would assume for them to have more flexibility than treatment centers. Please let us know and come back.

Try calling the halfway houses he is going to and ask them those questions.
