Mountainside is hopeful that through its new treatment component it will achieve the effect of longer lengths of stays through succinct aftercare treatment planning and follow up communications. Many times people can benefit from longer treatment, however are not afforded the appropriate time away to receive the necessary treatment – it is the mission of the Aftercare Coordinator to bridge that gap and construct find a solution.
