IHC is set up to deal with many different types of alcohol and substance use disorders, as well as many disorders that typically lead to or occur with substance dependency. They can start with behavioral screening and other assessments to see what the best course of action for a patient might be. Their treatment methods therapy, counselling, and medically assisted treatment to help people stick to the outpatient model.
IHC requires that participants abstain from addictive substances, and employs the necessary tests to hold them accountable. However, they prioritize respect for their patients at all times throught the process.
IHC’s approach is necessarily holistic, which means that their services extend far beyond an individual patient’s experience. The first way this plays out is that they engage in trauma informed care. This means that they account for and are sensitive to the fact that many people turn to substance use after traumatic experiences.
Secondly, they counsel and interact with a patient’s close loved ones during their rehabilitation. This can help heal families as well as create a home environment in which patients can build long lasting success stories. One patient said that having her family and friends brought into her recovery played a huge role in helping her focus on her daily steps to long term recovery.
IHC also offers additional health and vocational assistance. They have CDC trained testing and counseling for common illnesses associated with substance use. They can also refer patients for vocational training.
