Midway Recovery: Intake Process and Program Structure

At Midway Recovery, we provide a comprehensive and structured approach to help individuals transition into lasting recovery. Our program focuses on individualized care, personal growth, and long-term transformation.

Intake Process

Your journey begins with a confidential phone interview to assess your needs and goals. Upon admission, all residents are evaluated by a licensed, certified addiction counselor through a comprehensive assessment of:

• Physical, emotional, and behavioral health
• Social and educational status
• Employment readiness and personal recovery needs

Using this information, we create an individualized treatment plan tailored to your unique path to recovery.

3-6 Months: Balancing Recovery and Employment

As residents move into this phase, the focus shifts to maintaining recovery while integrating work and other responsibilities:

• Employment: Residents are expected to secure or actively pursue employment by this stage.

This phase helps residents build stability and reinforce recovery strategies as they re-enter the workforce or pursue career goals.
