When most people think about drug treatment programs, the first image that often comes to mind is someone huddled in a corner feverishly withdrawing from drugs and in a great deal of pain. That image comes to mind because in truth, that is how some drug treatment programs used to manage their patient's recovery in the past. But today, treatments for drug and alcohol addiction have progressed to the point that little, if any, withdrawal symptoms are experienced.

Even still, those images of the past can be hard for some people to forget. That's why Freedom Rings tries so hard to show people just how safe and effective drug treatment programs can be. We have developed a nationally recognized program that centers around treating the whole body, including the body, mind and spirit and the results have been truly amazing.

Advances in Drug Treatment Programs

Fortunately, there has been a tremendous shift in the philosophy of drug treatment programs and the clinical services we have available. The medical advances and new medications have made drug and alcohol detox quite tolerable. These medications are utilized to minimize or alleviate symptoms associated with drug withdrawal. Now that we understand drug addiction to be a treatable disease, the approach in a drug treatment program has changed completely. Clinical services are designed to treat an individual's core problems, rather than just the symptoms. Patients are provided with in-depth evaluations by psychiatrists and medical physicians to determine whether or not psychiatric disorders accompany the drug addiction. These breakthroughs in the nation's drug treatment programs have led to an increased rate of recovery for those seeking rehabilitation.

As stated, everything about drug treatment programs has changed, from philosophy and treatment to clinical accountability and licensure. Reputable drug treatment programs now must be licensed by their state and should be accredited by the Joint Commission. These types of agencies ensure that drug treatment programs adhere to specific guidelines as they apply to patient care, facility maintenance, medical practices and clinical services provided.

The Importance of Gay Drug Treatment Programs

We would be remiss not to mention the advances that have been made in gay drug treatment programs that have been developed exclusively for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender population. Whereas the GLBT community was once viewed by many as being "different," today, drug treatment programs, like Freedom Rings, have been established where members of the GLBT community are treated as equals. At Freedom Rings, our drug treatment program provides members of the gay community the option of attending "gay only" groups to deal with sensitive issues, as well as, attending all other clinical services. Drug treatment programs for the GLBT have come a long way, with Freedom Rings remaining one of the leading gay drug treatment centers nationwide.
