Addiction Intervention

Unsure when to do an Intervention ?

How much worse are you willing to let things get ?

It is our experience that doing something is always better than doing nothing. Remember .. …Addiction Kills !

Treatment for the suffering person is sometimes dangerously delayed because of the mistaken belief that an individual must hit bottom or the idea that treatment will only work if the addict wants it. Our  interventionist’s can effectively raise the bottom and offer them help with their addiction before it’s too late.

Treatment does not need to be voluntary to be effective.

It is important to know that help is available. Intervention services are the best way to make help available to those struggling with an addiction as over 90% of those intervened on will go to treatment and have the opportunity to change their lives.

The Goal of Intervention: to have the person begin treatment immediately.

For the highest chance of success, enlist a professional to help plan the intervention. CALL 800-893-7060

A Professional Interventionist Will Facilitate :

• Bringing  together the family members most concerned and any close friends or co-workers that the addict is likely to respond to.
• Having a plan – They will coordinate who is going to say what and when.
• The Interventionist will hold a family day prior to the intervention to rehearse what you are going to say, and say it in a concerned, caring, constructive way.
• Telling the addicted person that you care about him or her, but explain how you have seen their addiction affect their life and what you are concerned about using examples . State how their addiction is affecting your life also using examples and being specific.
• Making  all the arrangements for the person to begin treatment immediately following the intervention.
• Having  a bed ready , work out the financial details , and coordinate the intervention with the treatment centers intake counselor.
• Decide what consequences you’re prepared to follow through with if the person refuses addiction treatment.
• Be prepared to follow through with these consequences if treatment is refused.
• Get a commitment from the person that they’re willing to get help and get them there immediately.

Today, with alcohol and other drug addiction interventions being broadcast on television, participants often believe they do not need a trained person and they can do it for themselves. The danger in this is there may be one and only one opportunity to approach the sick person and get them to proper help. Untrained and unskilled participants do not want to blow this chance. Trained, credentialed professionals are capable of assessing the situation, dealing with their denial and resistance plus determining the model of intervention that will have the best outcome for each person.
