Substance Abuse Treatment Program

In order for a substance abuse treatment program to be effective, it must be designed around a person’s individual needs. WhiteSands outpatient facility in Melbourne does a full assessment on each patient, which includes both physical and mental health. One reason this is so important is due to the fact when there is a co-occurring disorder (substance abuse and mental health issue) both problems must be treated together. Without treating both problems, the result will most certainly be relapse because the emotional issue is generally a major part of the reason for the substance abuse. Once each patient’s assessment is gone over by the board-certified doctor and psychiatrist, a treatment plan will be created to treat the specific needs the patient has.
