Find the care that’s right for you

What you need to know about finding the right treatment for you

With so many options to consider as you seek help, finding what will work for you can seem like a challenge. We’ve identified five important things to ask when you’re looking for trustworthy treatment.

• Is your detox program medically supervised? Detox is a challenging part of the recovery journey, and it can feel scary to take that step. It’s so important to find a detox program in a clinical setting where you will be safely monitored and taken care of compassionately.
• Are mental health issues treated alongside addiction issues? Look for terms like dual diagnosis or co-occurring treatment. Addiction is complex, and oftentimes, underlying mental health issues contribute to that complexity. Treating both often means healing the root of the addiction.
• Is your treatment plan addressing my needs? Everyone is different. Circumstance, health and personality all play a role in what treatment should look like for you. Individualized treatment plans ensure that you get the kind of help that’s right for you.
• What does the entire treatment process look like? Ask questions, and then ask some more until you understand. You should have a clear picture of what the general treatment process is like, from admission to discharge to aftercare.
• What are your outcomes? While the outcomes cannot guarantee your success or the success of a loved one, a good indication of the effectiveness of a treatment program is its outcomes.
