| THE TREATMENT PROGRAM | | Western Queens Recovery Services sees alcohol and drug addiction as a holistic disease that affects the totality of an individual’s functioning; its effect on the family are equally far-reaching. Treatment goals will therefore focus on the achievement of an alcohol and drug-free lifestyle. Sustaining such a lifestyle necessitates abstinence and emotional stability as well as positive family, social, physical, vocational and spiritual functioning. Individual treatment plans must also address the needs of family members and significant others. Therefore, treatment plans will include individual, joint, family and group session as needed. A major focus of their treatment will be the fostering of the capacity to deal with life situations and enhance feelings well-being, self-esteem and autonomy. On going and active participation in the twelve-step self-help process will be stressed as being essential to the furtherance of treatment goals. Each member of the treatment team is responsive to community needs, referring agencies, employee assistance providers, and insurance companies, in order that clinically sound, affordable care is assured. Accepted Referrals: Self-referral, STARS, EAP’s, ACS, NADAP, physicians, preventive services, probation and parole, DDP, court-referrals and attorneys. | | Return To Top |
