The Golden Standards of the Alcohol Treatment Center at Lakeview
The alcohol treatment center at Lakeview Health Systems has been awarded the Gold Seal of Approval by the Joint Commission for providing the highest standard of care. An expert panel of doctors, nurses and patient safety leaders helps the Joint Commission annually formulate its National Patient Safety Goals and related evidence-based requirements. National Patient Safety Goals require accredited health care organizations such as Lakeview Health to focus on a series of specific actions to prevent medical errors. Following these simple proven steps significantly reduce the frequency of devastating medical errors that affect thousands of patients each year. Lakeview remains in full compliance with all applicable standards. We have received national recognition as one of the elite substance abuse treatment centers in the nation.
Our Alcohol Treatment Center Philosophy and Established Steps of Treatment
The philosophy of our alcohol treatment center is built upon the belief that alcoholism is a disease. By treating it as a disease, we provide similar care to that of our drug treatment center. In both programs, our focus is treatment provided in a number of carefully established steps. These steps include:
- Alcohol detox
- Medication management (when needed)
- Group therapy
- Individual therapy
- Family counseling
- Educational lectures
- Nutritional counseling
- 12-Step programs
An Alcohol Treatment Center Designed for Success
Our alcohol treatment center has designated certain buildings for specific recovery services. One such example is our alcohol detox center. By having our medical detox program in its own treatment setting on campus, it allows our nurses to pay closer attention to the patients in detox so as not to be distracted by those who are in the later stages of their alcohol rehab program. You will find we have given a great deal of thought and consideration in designing Lakeview in order to produce the best possible treatment experience for you through superior facility design.
The Alcohol Treatment Center Environment
At Lakeview Health Care Systems we believe that recovery is best pursued in a comfortable environment. The alcohol treatment process is not an easy one, but our healing environment certainly helps. After completing detox our residents are ready to continue treatment in well appointed semi-private rooms with access to a complete gym, dining room, and counseling areas.
Recovery Apartments - Enhancing Alcohol Treatment
Substance abuse treatment studies have shown that the more comprehensive care an alcohol treatment center provides, the greater a person's chances are of achieving a lasting recovery. Our recovery apartments are designed to provide a powerful continuum of care. The apartments, located one mile from our alcohol treatment center help those in recovery to experience many of the same things they will encounter upon returning to their actual homes. This final step provides those finishing their residential alcohol treatment an opportunity to step outside the comfort zone of the alcohol treatment center and experience the "real world" while still having weekly therapy and other support services.
