INTERVENTIONS USA
Intervention is an extreme spiritual act of faith for all who are involved, myself included. We have to believe that "love" is a greater power than sickness. Intervention is an action that taps into that power and breaks through the addiction to provide the person with a moment of truth & clarity to receive help."
Types of Intervention Services Available
· Traditional Family Intervention: This is where the family is trained, and confronts the person with love and concern in a non-judgmental manner and requests the person to go to treatment.
· Gentle Family Intervention: This is where the focus is on the family and how they have been affected by the person’s drinking / drug using behavior
· Hospital Based: This is when an incident occurred hat required the person to be hospitalized and we effect a seamless transfer to a treatment facility from the hospital.
· Involuntary Commitment: This is when all other efforts have failed and the person is a danger to himself or others and we utilize the court system to assist us in getting the person to treatment.
