The Importance of Family Involvement in Rehab

The Importance of Family Involvement in Rehab Resurgence Behavioral Health

Benefits of Family Involvement During Drug Rehab

One of the heartbreaking aspects of addiction is the fact that it can have a negative impact on the relationships that you have with your family members and the ones that you hold dear. Whereas you may have had a close and loving relationship with your family, addiction can quickly come in the way of that and cause you to feel as though you’re completely alone in seemingly every aspect of your life.

At Resurgence Behavioral Health, we understand the important role that your family can play when it comes to your long-term sobriety and recovery which is one of the reasons why we require family participation as you begin to work through the myriad of factors that are associated with your addiction. Your family can provide you with a level of support that will help you take comfort in the fact that you are taking the right steps toward living a healthier life.

Understanding the Role of Family in Addiction Recovery

A family can be the leading supporter for any person that is suffering from addiction which is why we make the commitment to working with family members throughout your recovery process. Your family members have a special connection with you. They know you, they know your history and they know the good that you’re capable of accomplishing once you’re able to overcome your addiction. Relying on your family for their help can make all the difference in the world when it comes to maintaining your sobriety.

Family Communication is Key

Something that we hear often from both people that are struggling with addiction, as well as family members, is that they feel as though they cannot communicate with one another. It’s important to remember that this is fairly common among family members, regardless of whether or not there is someone in the family that is trying to overcome an addiction.

Family Involvement at Resurgence Behavioral Health

From the moment that you step through the doors of our facility, we will always encourage family involvement while you’re in rehab. Coming to rehab is an excellent opportunity to rekindle this relationship. When you come to Resurgence, you and your family will have the chance to learn more about the fact that addiction is a disease and that you don’t have to be embarrassed by the fact that you’re struggling with this disease.

Why We Require Family Involvement

There are many reasons why we require family involvement for clients that come to Resurgence Behavioral Health. We encourage family involvement in rehab for the following reasons:

  • Reduces the possibility of relapse
  • Develop a better understanding of addiction

Important Topics to Discuss with Family Before Rehab

There are several topics that our team will want to discuss with your family both before and during the course of your treatment such as:

  • Meal schedule
  • Visiting hours
  • Developing a better understanding of known triggers
