Sunshine Coast Announces New Post on Calgary, Edmonton and Alberta Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Support

EDMONTON, Alberta, March 1, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Sunshine Coast Health Centre (SCHC), recognized as one of the top inpatient or residential drug rehabilitation and alcohol treatment programs in Canada that uses a non-12-step methodology, is proud to announce a new post on how it supports "alumni" in Alberta cities such as Edmonton and Calgary. While the residential facility is located in Powell River, B.C., many people who suffer from drugs, alcohol, trauma, PTSD or other issues vis-a-vis addiction live or work in Alberta and its cities of Edmonton or Calgary. The post showcases some of the "alumni support" that Sunshine Coast expends on people who have gone through the program.

“Recovery is a lifelong process, and so we work hard to support our alumni,” explained Casey Jordan, chief marketing officer. “The author of the post, Jaymie Bryan, works hard to support folks in Alberta who have graduated from our program. The post is a good example of the face-to-face interaction that separates our program from others.”

ALUMNI SUPPORT: A KEY ASPECT OF RECOVERY

Here is background on this release. Many people who suffer from drugs, alcohol, addiction or other stress-related maladies are eager to seek out some form of treatment. Often, they first learn about or try faith-based programs such as "AA" or "NarAnon." Many find that those approaches do not work for them and so they seek out a so-called "non-12-step methodology" such as that offered by Sunshine Coast Health Centre. Still others want a residential program so that they can break out of old habits and bad acquaintances and seek a meaning-centered approach to recovery. For these reasons, the facility at Powell River, British Columbia, is acquiring a reputation as a best-in-class drug and alcohol treatment program in Canada. In addition, support continues after a person "graduates" from the residential program. They then may return home to Edmonton, Calgary or other cities in Alberta. At that point, however, they are not on their own. A robust alumni network exists, and outreach efforts such as those described in this new blog post help persons stay in recovery and share their struggles and victories along the path to health.

Any person suffering from drugs, alcohol, PTSD or trauma (as well as a loved one) is encouraged to reach out for a confidential consultation. No two situations are alike and, therefore, the best first step is a consultation. At that point, a treatment program can be devised and the path towards recovery embraced. Any person, including journalists and bloggers, who has interest in learning more is encouraged to reach out to the Centre.
