Substance Abuse Treatment for Adults

Substance abuse can be a primary, progressive, chronic and potentially fatal disease. It inflicts serious negative consequences on those afflicted and adversely affects the lives of their family members and loved ones. Substance abuse treatment at West Oaks Hospital is intended to help patients develop the skills necessary for a lifestyle free of alcohol and drugs.

Components of Substance Abuse Treatment

Substance Abuse Programs

The residential treatment center at West Oaks Hospital offers adults the tools to build a solid foundation for recovery. We utilize the concepts of Alcoholics Anonymous, relapse prevention, life skills training and family therapy. Patients work together to change old behaviors and thought patterns and establish strategies for healthy living.

Following the residential program, patients can continue their path of recovery through our outpatient substance abuse services.

Acute detoxification offers 24-hour, medically managed detoxification with emphasis on stabilization and assessment of needs.

Drug rehabilitation offers a 24-hour, medically supervised, structured environment to further the stabilization process.
