BHS – Hollywood Recovery Center

About BHS – Hollywood Recovery Center – Los Angeles, California

Behavioral Health Services (BHS), located in Hollywood, California, is a nonprofit, community based, integrated healthcare organization that provides mental health and drug rehab services. They also offer drug-free transitional living, older adult services, HIV/AIDS education and prevention, and other related health services.

The BHS Hollywood Recovery Center offers medical detoxification, residential inpatient alcohol and drug rehab, and outpatient drug rehab services.

Medical Detoxification
At BHS, medical detoxification is offered in a residential setting with 24-hour medical supervision and generally lasts 10 – 14 days. Professionals monitor vital signs and work to keep the detox as comfortable as possible. Education on addiction and an introduction to self-help programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous is common during this time. Continuing care and aftercare referrals are also provided.

Residential
The residential substance abuse treatment program provides the opportunity to work intensively on the life issues that created and perpetuate substance use disorder. Education, therapeutic interventions, and new life skills are interwoven into a clinical treatment model. The goal is to create enough of a shift that upon discharge what is learned in treatment will be brought into family issues, social functioning problems, legal problems, and other common challenges for those in recovery. With an average length of treatment that lasts 3-6 months, a significant amount of work can be done. Medical and psychiatric care is encouraged to continue upon leaving, along with maintaining a positive recovery network that will continue to support long-term abstinence.

Outpatient
Outpatient substance abuse treatment is offered at differing levels of intensity depending on individual needs and goals. This service can take place at the residential facility or within a commute situation where patients return home to sleep at night. The main focus is continued abstinence without relapse. Treatment lasts between 3 – 9 months with an interval of 1 – 5 days a week participating in outpatient care.

12 Steps
The 12 Step program is a common recovery model based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a plan for recovery based in a Higher Power. Middle steps include self-examination and making amends to those who’ve been hurt by the addiction. The later steps include continuing to take personal inventory while living a life of recovery and supporting others in doing the same.
Additional 12 Step groups include Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) Gamblers Anonymous (GA), to name a few.
