Our Process
Healing Pines Recovery
Understanding The Process
From the moment you enter our program you are welcomed as an individual, not a statistic. We recognize that addicts and alcoholics are some of the most intelligent, artistic individuals around. High intelligence and abstract thought pose, on occasion, some difficulties in society including anxiety, depression, fears etc.
Most addicts at one point saw alcohol or drugs as a solution to their anxiety, fear or confidence, a way to quite the mind for example, that quickly turns for the worst and does not get better if you continue using.
That’s where we come in. Every person that works at HPR has a personal tie and drive to seeing success in others. Our team of progressive addiction professionals have the experience and passion to invest into each person who comes through our doors.
Detox:
The decision to fight an addiction to drugs or alcohol is complex and often intimidating or frightening; however, it’s also something to be celebrated as that individual can look forward to beginning the journey to recovery and a better quality of life. Detox is just the first part of addiction treatment. Detox on its own is usually insufficient for a successful recovery. Addicted people need to treat the psychological part of their addiction.
EVALUATION
Our medical professionals monitor health issues in the new patients. They also take a history of drug, medical and psychiatric issues. The collected information helps us devise a long-term recovery plan for the patient.
STABILIZATION
We stabilize patients with medical and psychological therapy. This helps us prevent any harm to the patient and avoid feelings of withdrawal in them. Our doctors also prescribe addiction treatment medications, if needed to alleviate any discomfort or withdrawal symptoms.
PREPARING ENTRY INTO TREATMENT
In the final step, we prepare patients for treatment. Doctors provide their patients with a run-through of the treatment process, and what they should expect from it.
Residential Treatment:
Residential treatment allows individuals to experience 24-hour care while pursuing therapy to confront the challenges of conditions related to substance abuse (alcohol and/or drugs). At Healing Pines Recovery, individuals are able to access the highest level of care than can be provided. Residential treatment of drug or alcohol addiction is often more successful than detox and/or outpatient care alone. Being in a program 24 hours a day, 7 days a week may seem daunting, but this sober environment is essential to battling drug or alcohol addiction. People who go through residential treatment have a better chance of getting to long-term recovery and staying healthy. There are many benefits of residential treatment, but they are easily summed up in these three categories.
Structure:
A regular, daily schedule may seem very restricting at a distance. However, the structure of routine allows each person to focus on getting healthy. It eliminates gaps of down time that allow cravings to grow, and gives stability to the rougher moments of recovery. Clear boundaries and accountability help people with addiction redevelop willpower and keep commitments.
Community:
Most every person with a alcohol or substance dependency has felt isolated, guilty, and misunderstood. The stigma of addiction make many people afraid to seek treatment. Being able to get to recovery without the pressures and judgments makes the process easier to deal with. At Healing Pines Recovery, everyone you meet during the day will understand the pain and suffering addiction causes. Fellow patients share their own stories of struggle and success, and addiction professionals act as knowledgeable and compassionate guides. Whenever you’re at a tough moment, someone will be there to help you through it.
Focus:
Freed from the obligations of work, school, friends, and family, a person at Healing Pines Recovery can completely focus on themselves. This may sound selfish, but people with addictions must learn how to stop caring for the addiction and start caring for themselves again. Residential treatment is more than getting sober. People address their past issues and develop new healthy habits. The structure and the community provide an environment where they can heal body, mind, and spirit. The ultimate goal of Healing Pines Recovery is a successful and sustainable recovery.
