Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse and addiction are health disorders affecting the lives of millions of men, women and children world-wide.  The heavy human, social and economic cost resulting from these problems can be seen all around us in the lives of friends, neighbors, family members, co-workers, employers,….   These conditions have no boundaries with respect to race, age, educational, vocational or socioeconomic status.

Like all other health disorders, effective treatment is conducted by a trained professional and begins with a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation.  The evaluation produces information which the clinician uses to develop a course of treatment designed specifically for each individual client.

Elements of effective treatment include:

Treatment must respond to each individual’s needs relative to:

Medical Interventions

Along with treatment for substance disorders, the diagnostic assessment may reveal the need for medical interventions such as the use of medications which help block cravings, facilitate detoxification, or are beneficial in the treatment of a co-occurring mental health disorder such as depression.  The assessment may also indicate a need to address physical disorders like anemia, malnutrition, liver disorders, diabetes, hypertension, dental, pre-natal care, medically supervised detoxification, and testing and treatment for infectious diseases, especially those related to substance abuse and associated high-risk behaviors.

An individualized approach is the hallmark of effective treatment.  Adanta is committed to individualizing each person’s plan of care and to continuously improving the quality of care provided.
