Fresno Addiction Treatment Network 
Free Drug and Alcohol Rehab Consultation
Substance abuse is a painful and unhappy disease to have to live with; it’s hard on those who suffer from addiction to drugs and alcohol. It’s also hard for family members that are affected by a loved one’s drug and alcohol dependency. Rehabilitation is as treatment method through which addicts can come to terms with their dependency, learn how to recognize and avoid triggers that make them use, and learn how to live successfully as an addict in recovery. Our treatment center develops customized treatment plans to meet the physical, psychological, social, medical, vocational and emotional requirements of all of our clients, and provides a wholesome and compassionate atmosphere for addicts who want to begin recovering from dependency. We offer a safe environment where our clients can heal from addictions.
Rehab Services Offered
Unfortunately, due to the stigma of being an addict, many people conceal their problems with dependency from their family members. Sometimes families conceal problems with substance dependency from the outside world. This pattern of behavior is more typical than you’d think, and often creates a lot of animosity and frustration. In these particular circumstances, interventions can be one of the most effective ways of persuading an addict to go into rehab.
Our staff strongly recommends employing a counselor or an interventionist to mediate the intervention itself. Interventions can be valuable for everyone involved, and the benefits include the following: providing a safe environment, helping people to verbalize their concerns and frustrations, and persuading the addict to enter rehabilitation.
Start with Detox Services
Detox is another part of the recovery process that should not be mistaken for rehabilitation. It is necessar to realize that detox won’t cure an addict, however it is a good first step in recovery. Detox, or detoxification, will help the addict thoroughly and swiftly withdraw from the substances they are dependent on, occasionally with the help of prescribed medication. There are two commonly utilized kinds of detox. One occurs in a residential or outpatient facility, and is called social detox because it involves instructing the addict and preparing them mentall for rehabilitation. A medically supervised detox is a type of detox that takes place in a hospital or inpatient facility, and the addict’s withdrawal is supervised by a nurse or a doctor.
Depending on the needs of the patient, either kind of detox can work. For people at all levels of addiction, whether they have only started using or are habitually using drugs and alcohol, there are healthy and effective treatments. These treatment programs include, but are not limited to, treatment for alcohol, opiates, prescribed drugs, designer drugs, crystal meth, cocaine, hallucinogens and marijuana. Rehab programs provide the most effective and powerful treatments by assessing the nature of the dependency and any contributing psychological factors and then determining the ideal path toward recovery for each individual client.
