Addiction Treatment Philosophy and How to Treat Addictions at Lakeview

Our Addiction Treatment Philosophy

Treatment Approach

Lakeview Health Systems accepts the medical community’s and the surgeon general’s categorization of addiction as a chronic disease of the brain and body. To meet that challenge, we base our treatment on a medical, multidisciplinary model.

Center in Jacksonville, FL.

Everyone who enters our state-of-the-art alcohol and drug detoxification facility, or any of our other treatment programs, is attended to by a team of board-certified doctors, nurses, clinicians and licensed, master’s-level therapists with specialized training in alcohol and drug rehabilitation. A medical and therapeutic team is assigned to each patient enabling the staff to create an ever-evolving treatment plan. Our medical and clinical staff are present on site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to monitor and respond to changes in a patient’s physical or psychological condition immediately.

Comprehensive Intensive Treatment

A comprehensive, individualized treatment plan includes medical treatment (medications to address physical needs), nursing care, a psychiatric component (to address emotional and psychiatric disorders such as dual diagnosis), therapeutic

modules (individual counseling, group counseling), bio-psychosocial rehabilitation, peer support (group counseling and 12-step workshops), relapse prevention, family counseling, and aftercare treatment plans and counseling.

The goal is to introduce and reinforce living in abstinence through recovery. Addiction is a disease that requires life-long attention to maintain a state of remission. Each patient will learn: that appropriate actions will help him or her avoid relapse; how to handle triggers without responding by using drugs and alcohol; to accept life without drugs and alcohol; that consequences result from personal actions; and that a clean and sober life is characterized by unimaginable personal growth and emotional psychiatric stability.

We strive to empower our patients through dignity, knowledge, and tools so that they can return to healthy and productive lives in their communities.
