Becoming dependent on alcohol or drugs isn’t something
that anyone expects to happen. However, alcohol and drug dependency
or addiction sometimes creeps up on people – even you.
One drink leads to another and another until you find you can’t
get through a day without significant amounts of alcohol. The
same thing can happen with drugs – whether they’re
prescriptions or not.
Alcohol and drug dependency hurts the person with the problem,
their friends and family members. In just about every situation,
family relationships are strained and often, severely affected.
The good news, however, is that addiction is a disease that
is successfully treatable when you recognize that you need help.
Behavioral addictions may also be treated within this program.
Windsor-Laurelwood’s Addiction Recovery Services offer you the
opportunity to take control of your problem and to recover –
one step at a time.
The Assessment
First, a thorough assessment of your physical, addictive and
mental health issues will be completed by Windsor-Laurelwood behavioral
health professionals. The results of this initial assessment
will assist the treatment team in determining the best treatment
plan and specific services required to meet your unique needs.
Your treatment team will collaborate with you to develop your
personal treatment goals within the Addiction Recovery Services
program model. The treatment program will empower you to take
responsibility for recovery, assist you in building or strengthening
your self esteem and in developing coping skills. ARS will also
introduce you to 12-Steps programming and help you develop strategies
to prevent relapse.
There are many services to aid you in your recovery process.
Some of them are briefly described below:
• Detoxification –
Medically supervised detoxification on an inpatient or outpatient
basis may be necessary to manage any complications that you
may experience when you stop using alcohol or drugs. A physician,
nurse, and certified chemical dependency counselor will monitor
your physiological and psychological symptoms and provide
management for withdrawal symptoms that you may encounter.
• Residential Programs
– Residential programs provide a 24-hour, 7-day structured
schedule for individuals requiring intensive recovery programming.
The programs include both group and individual work with a
certified chemical dependency counselor and/or treatment supervision
by a physician and nursing staff.
• Dual Diagnosis –
Often individuals find themselves dealing with the complications
of addiction as well as mental health problems such as depression,
anxiety, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.
Behavioral health professionals have found that treating you
for both the psychiatric and addictive illnesses simultaneously
results in better recovery success. Through Windsor-Laurelwood’s
inpatient, partial hospital and outpatient program specialties
for dual diagnosis, you are provided with the intensity of
services required by your unique needs.
• Partial Hospitalization Program
(PHP) – PHP offers comprehensive day treatment
for the resolution and stabilization of your recovery from
alcohol or drug dependency. You return home each night during
program participation.
• Intensive Outpatient Program
(IOP) – IOP services at Windsor-Laurelwood Center for Behavioral Medicine Counseling
Center locations provide you with 3 hours of programming,
3 days a week, designed to prevent the need for inpatient
treatment for many recovering individuals. The IOP helps you
gain insight into the disease of addiction and develop skills
to help you succeed in your recovery.
• Early Recovery Program
– As you begin your life of sobriety and recovery, you
may find that you need assistance in relapse prevention and
mastering the ability to become part of the recovering community.
This program will assist you in the transition from treatment
to ongoing community support.
• Education and Therapy
– Our multidisciplinary team focuses on treating the
whole individual and specifically how your illness impacts
you. Our holistic approach – treating the mind, body
and spirit of each person optimizes the opportunity for recovery
to start quickly and continue successfully as you learn about
your disease, your life and your future. Addiction treatment
specialists provide a safe, confidential, supportive and structured
therapeutic environment that helps you and your family make
progress along the path to recovery.
• State-Of-The-Art –
Our treatment services incorporate the latest research on
substance abuse and our treatment team uses the therapeutic
skills adopted from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
