If permitted to run its course, it will result in incarceration, insanity or premature death. Because chemical dependency is an illness, it can be diagnosed. Though incurable, the disease responds to treatment programs based, like ours, on the 12-Step philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous. We offer a safe, therapeutic environment with various levels of care, including detoxification, inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, continued care and family programs. With peer groups, we establish the trust that encourages patients to admit their disease.
Chemical dependency is chronic, and support is crucial.
We help patients remain sober with an active Alumni Association that provides a sober social support system. We also introduce patients to the available network of county and state recovery, mental health and social services. For many patients, our special Relapse Prevention Program is the key to sustaining an independent life. Chemical dependency affects all of a person's life, so the best treatment involves a variety of disciplines throughout recovery. We offer separate facilities to provide confidentiality, but we also have the Hospital's complete physical and medical rehabilitation services available, including psychology , physical therapy , recreational therapy and vocational rehabilitation .
