Wasatch Recovery Treatment Center Coed Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Wasatch Recovery Treatment Center is a sober living home on 700 East in Sandy, Utah, in Salt Lake County, run by Wasatch Recovery Treatment Center as a step down from its clinical treatment programs.

A Sober House Built Around a Therapeutic Community

Wasatch Recovery describes its sober living as a comfortable, home-like environment kept free of drugs and alcohol, run on the traditional Alcoholics Anonymous twelve-step model combined with a therapeutic community approach. That combination means residents are accountable to the group as much as to any individual counselor, and daily structure comes from shared expectations among residents.

A Step Down From Residential or Outpatient Treatment

Admission follows a comprehensive clinical and medical assessment, and the house is positioned for people either finishing residential treatment or continuing intensive outpatient and day treatment programs. Residents can keep working with their existing therapy and treatment providers while living in the house, and there is no set length of stay, so the timeline is built around individual progress.

Utah Licensing, and What It Confirms

Utah requires recovery residences, its term for sober living, to hold a license through the Utah Department of Health and Human Services Office of Licensing. That requirement is mandatory statewide, and it applies to this Sandy house alongside any clinical licensure the operator holds for its treatment programs.

Sandy's Place in Salt Lake County

Sandy is one of the larger cities in the Salt Lake Valley, part of Salt Lake County with Salt Lake City as the county seat. That location puts residents close to the county's outpatient providers, courts and transit lines, all useful for someone continuing treatment or building a work routine while adjusting to sober living.

What This Sandy Sober House Expects of Residents

House rules require abstinence from drugs and alcohol and participation consistent with the twelve-step and therapeutic community model Wasatch Recovery runs. Anyone considering the house should ask how it coordinates with the operator's own outpatient services, since the program is built to let a resident continue treatment without changing providers.
