At first after rescue the patient, we do some dope test. Try to figure out whether the patient is drug addicted or not. If yes then we identify the chemical choice of the patient.
Addiction doesn’t just affect the addicted person, it impacts the entire family. Our Family Program at Pinevale Addiction Center is broken into alternating four-hour modules each Saturday. The first module is geared toward providing education while the second focuses on processing recovery issues. The education module includes information about the addictive process, addictive personality, 12-Step, sponsorship, transitional living and other topics. As family members move on to processing, patients join their loved ones to discuss anger and emotional coping, share honesty letters, explore re-entry options and family agreements.
Loved ones are also invited to attend our free local weekly Family Support Group.
