Treatment For Crack Addiction

Does Pacific Hills offer treatment for crack addiction??

Cocaine is a common and widely used drug consumed through different means. Crack or crack cocaine is a form of cocaine. It has not been neutralized by an acid to make cocaine hydrochloride, the pure form of the chemical. Crack comes in a rock crystal form that can be heated and inhaled or smoked. It is called 'crack' in reference to the cracking sound it makes when it is heated. Crack cocaine is a highly addictive drug.

Crack cocaine takes one to the stage of elation. A person is more likely to get addicted quickly to cocaine by smoking crack than by snorting the drug, as it commonly is.

Is there a medical or psychological problem present?

We admit patients to our crack addiction treatment program after thoroughly assessing them medically and psychologically. Patients who enroll themselves for this program often face medical and psychological problems and throughout their tenure at the Center meet our physicians and psychiatrists on a regular basis.

Many times addicts refuse to take treatment for addiction. Therefore, the intervention of loved ones becomes a necessity. Close family and friends can help bring addicts to our treatment center especially when he/she is in a denial or refusal mode for the treatment. At Pacific Hills our intake counselors can help arrange the intervention leading to the patient’s admission into the rehab center.

At times medical detoxification becomes necessary before the admission of the addicts to the treatment center. Our counselors can assist you by arranging a detox process with a qualified facility. After detoxification when the patient stabilizes, he/she is admitted to begin treatment at the rehab center.

In addition to behavioral education through individual and group therapy and 12-Step meetings, Pacific Hills' treatment for crack addiction includes education regarding exercise and nutrition.

Testimonials

"You are always in a place where someone is there no matter what you are going through and you can feel safe. I think when you are removed from your environment and you don't have to deal with going to work, cooking and taking care of the kids, answering the phone and paying the bills all the things from everyday life, you can focus just on you and you can completely break down. I always tell people that its not falling apart, it's falling together."
