Drug Rehab
Drug Rehab is an important part of the process of recovering from addiction to drugs, alcohol and co-occurring disorders. In addition to discontinuing drug use and stabilizing mental disorders, treatment helps individuals establish a foundation of recovery and begin to function effectively in their families, workplaces, and communities.
While in treatment, individuals learn about addiction, recovery, and the dangers of relapse while simultaneously confronting misunderstandings about self, others, and their environment. A drug rehabilitation center like Michael's House helps individual’s make important lifestyle changes, manage feelings, develop tools for coping, and learn skills instrumental in successful abstinence. Our drug rehab centers also teach individuals to identify the warning signs for drug and alcohol relapse and design effective strategies for preventing a relapse. Statistics show that without a solid plan to avoid or handle addiction triggers, patients often relapse into the behavior that brought them to the drug rehab facility.
What you need to know about Drug Rehab
For many drug addicts and alcoholics, success is a direct function of the amount of assistance they receive during their rehabilitation program. Those who remain in a drug rehab center longer than three months usually have better results than those who spend less time there. Research conducted over the last 25 years demonstrates that drug rehabilitation centers work to reduce an individual's drug use as well as prevent the potential commission of crimes by drug abusers. Research has also shown that those who have successfully completed a drug rehab program are more likely to secure employment.
For most individuals, an inpatient residential drug rehab program is the best option for successful recovery. Research indicates that inpatient drug rehab is the most successful kind of care for those who have had multiple unsuccessful attempts at recovery through outpatient treatment. Those who have abused drugs or alcohol heavily for years may have even more difficulty quitting. An individual in this category may be best served by attending a long-term inpatient alcohol and drug rehab program like our Extended Care Program. A drug rehab center's ability to handle all types of drug addiction is critical. At Michael's House we understand how to detox and treat specific drug addictions such as: methamphetamine addiction, marijuana addiction, heroin addiction, cocaine addiction, xanax abuse, and prescription medication abuse.
