I am a family member of a person who needs an
intervention,
what should I do?
If you are the family member or close friend of a
person suffering from addiction, you made the first
right step by searching for help here at Drug
Intervention Pros. Our intervention specialists will
walk you through the entire process step by step.
How does the initial intervention process work?
The intervention process begins when a friend, family
member, or individual makes the call to ask for help.
We always have intervention experts standing by
awaiting your calls. We can also answer any questions
you might have via email. Once we have evaluated the
situation, a drug intervention professional will
contact you and we will figure out a plan of action.
Phone conversations will take place and the
interventionist and the family will decide on a time
and a place for the intervention. The actual
intervention is based on an open, honest conversation
between the interventionist, family, friends and
individual.
What is an Intervention?
An intervention occurs when a suffering drug addict or
alcoholic is unable to seek help alone. The
intervention process uses the assistance of family and
close friends to confront the individual’s addiction.
After the initial evaluation has taken place, the
family, friends and intervention professional design a
plan of action that provides a safe environment for
the addict. An emphasis is placed on creating just a
brief moment of clarity during which the addict is
able to accept that he or she needs help.
Are interventions successful?
In general interventions are very successful if done
by experienced professionals. Intervention success
rates range from 93-99%. Interventions are often a
person’s very first introduction recovery or
rehabilitation efforts, so the subject is better
breached by a trained interventionist with many years
of experience.
What happens after the intervention?
Although each situation is different, during our
initial consultations with the family members and
friends we outline a plan from that moment until after
the intervention is over. Our interventionists are
able to provide various options for treatment and
aftercare depending on the specific needs of the
individuals. There are various types of treatment
programs depending on price range and time length,
ranging anywhere from short-term detoxification to
long-term inpatient and outpatient treatment.
