The daily schedule for clients in primary care is highly structured. This
facilitates the development of self-discipline and new routines conducive to a
recovery lifestyle.
All clients are expected to actively participate in a program of physical
activity and nutrition. We offer daily access to a full-service fitness
facility.
Clients are involved in volunteer activities in the community. Volunteer
activities include mentoring programs in the local elementary school where
clients assist children of various ages with their learning skills. The facility
also takes part in the "Adopt-a-Highway" program in the state of
Oklahoma. These activities increase a sense of altruism that has been found to
be an essential resiliency skill for adolescents.
All clients participate in an academic program tailored to meet their
individual needs. Our classrooms include a computer lab with internet access.
The on-site teacher is accredited in the state of Oklahoma and acts as a liaison
for programming and credit issues. Clients are also offered the option to
partake in GED preparation work should they choose not to pursue a traditional
diploma course of work.
Primary Care clients attend psycho-educational process and support groups
daily to address their substance dependence, its impact on their life, the lives
of family members, and the underlying thought process associated with their
addiction.
Twelve-Step groups have a long and successful history in the field of
Chemical Dependency. Clients begin the process of integration into the 12-Step
recovery community through meeting attendance and requirements related to step
work and obtaining a sponsor.
"Recovery Weekends" further assist the clients to adopt a recovery
lifestyle and develop social/leisure skills compatible with a drug-free way of
life.
Families of clients are expected to be actively involved in the treatment
process. Family involvement is individualized for each client.
Four Winds Ranch is a non-smoking facility. All clients are offered a smoking
cessation program designed to meet their specific needs.
