Rehab Program
What exactly do we mean when we say
rehab program?
Well, rehabilitate means to restore to or improve a previous condition.
A program is a series of steps to bring about a desired result.
So an effective
rehab program is a series of steps to bring about an improvement of the condition the person was in prior to the drug or alcohol addiction.
Simply withdrawing someone from
drug use is merely one step though an important one. Going to support groups or meetings is also a step. Here at the Narconon Arrowhead
rehab program our full
rehab program will address physical, emotional, and mental factors leading up to and then continuing addiction. The three broad categories are cravings, guilt and depression. When one is feeling better (emotionally and physically) as well as functioning better they will no longer require or crave drugs in an attempt to escape these unwanted feelings. Narconon
rehab programs rehabilitate lives so that
drug use is no longer needed or desired.
Drug Rehab Information By State
Addiction intervention refers to an action undertaken in order to change what is happening or might happen concerning another’s addiction, especially in order to prevent something undesirable.
Many addicts are so oblivious to the effects they are creating on themselves, their health, their loved ones and co-workers that it takes serious intervention in order to get through to them the need that they get help NOW.
In most cases it is not that they don’t care, though it may appear this way, but they are simply not aware of what is happening to them and around them. At Narconon Arrowhead we have intake counselors who can guide you on the type of intervention needed at any given point in the process of getting a loved one into rehab.
We have been there and know what it takes and the best way to go about it
If you or a loved one is in the full grip of the downward spiral of addiction, looking to
addiction centers can offer information, help, and assistance for an otherwise hopeless situation.
Many
addiction centers have websites which can be a rich source of information regarding addiction and on specific drugs.
Addiction centers have varying philosophies regarding addiction which should be obtainable from their websites as well. The main thing one is looking for when considering any
addiction centers should be proven results over an extended period of time.
The
12 step program has been around in various forms since the 1920’s.
It basically involves 12 different steps done by the addict or
alcoholic in an attempt to gain control over the
addiction or alcoholism.
There are thousands of local meetings throughout the world whose membership uses the 12 steps as their basic approach.
Many of the short term
drug rehabs also use the 12 step approach to solving
addiction or alcoholism.
There is absolutely no doubt that this approach works for some and works well. However, overall success rates tend to be dismally low. For instance AA reports a meager 5-7% retention rate for those attending these meetings. All is not hopeless for you or a loved one who has found a
12 step program not fully handling addiction or alcoholism. There are more non-traditional alternatives available with significantly higher success rates; Narconon Arrowhead is one of these.
When speaking of an inpatient drug
treatment clinic we are usually referring to a medical facility geared towards or specializing in getting the addict or
alcoholic weaned from the use of these substances.
Alcohol and several of the prescription painkillers and mood altering drugs run a health risk if cessation occurs ‘cold turkey’. Severe Delirium Tremens for alcohol
abuse as well as several of the side effects from prescription dependence can be life threatening if not medically supervised.
These ‘medical detox’ facilities can and do serve a vital role in the
rehabilitation process.
Many of these get the individual to the point were they can cease use of the drug or alcohol safely.
This is by no means a full
detoxification of the human body. Inpatient drug
treatment clinic services need followed up with a program such as the New Life
Detoxification Program at Narconon Arrowhead to fully handle the drug and toxins lodged in the fatty tissues of the body.
