Treatment facilities are starting to recognize that this is a family disease and while there may be only one individual with a substance abuse problem, there are other individuals in the family that can contribute to that bad behavior through, you know, enabling or the codependency issues that they have right, and the family members don't realize it.
Imagine trying to understand the maze of inpatient treatment for addiction recovery. In this episode of 'I Took the High Road', Jacob Jansen sits down with Betsy Farver-Smith, the executive director of treatment services at the Betty Ford Center, to break down what these facilities really offer. Betsy shares her wealth of experience, shedding light on the evolving landscape of addiction treatment since the Betty Ford Center opened its doors in 1982.
They discuss the changing perceptions of addiction, the admission process, and what truly happens behind those doors. This conversation also tackles the persistent stereotypes and stigmas that often prevent people from seeking help. With a focus on family involvement, different recovery models, treatment costs, and the crucial role of recovery coaching, this episode is a treasure trove of information for anyone curious about or affected by addiction.
Jacob and Betsy also touch on the broader drug epidemic in America and the barriers that individuals and families face in accessing treatment. If you're looking to understand more about inpatient treatment facilities and want to dispel some myths, this episode is a must-listen.
