Beach House Recovery Center » Blog » Reasons to Choose Evidence-Based Addiction Treatment
If you’ve been exploring addiction rehab options for yourself or someone you care about, you’ve probably come across the phrase “evidence-based addiction treatment.” While it’s true that this approach to recovery is one quality that sets facilities like Beach House apart from the rest of the crowd, you might not have read a full description of why evidence-based treatment is so successful in helping people achieve long-term recovery from their addictions.
The scientific method is a dependable way to determine the efficacy of a specific approach. The scientific method begins by asking a question, then doing research and testing to determine if the process is working. If the process does produce the expected results, they must be repeatable.
Evidence-based addiction treatment, then, must meet the standards of the scientific method and provide a reliable, tested approach to helping people recover from substance misuse disorders. It is organized and follows the same steps in the same order, so that each person who enters receives a consistently high level of care.
As you are researching treatment programs, one of your chief concerns is probably finding a program that has a high rate of success. To this end, you should consider asking the following questions.
In particular, ask about substance abuse specialized treatment to ensure the program addresses your unique needs effectively.
By carefully investigating a facility’s methods and approach to treatment before entering a program, you can find the one that is likely to work best for you.
The current science of addiction recovery has taught us that addiction is a complex disease that alters brain chemistry. While there is no known cure for addiction, people can learn to manage the symptoms and go on to live healthy lives.
This evidence-based finding means that addiction treatment is most likely to succeed when it teaches a person with substance misuse how to address the root causes of the disease through proven therapeutic approaches.
Evidence-based addiction treatment that results in long-term recovery typically includes the following elements along the continuum of care:
