Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Rose Hill, IA.

There are approximately 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. Individuals who suffer with a mental health disorder, whether properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of substance abuse disorder. This can be difficult to diagnose and treat, but if either one of them are left untreated both might become more harmful for the individual, leaving them exposed to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special instances can be severe, at times leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specific treatment to handle the co-occurring disorders at the same time, this can be avoided and people in Rose Hill with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more broad spectrum of treatment services for these individuals. Early intervention can be vital in these circumstances, and many people with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special opportunity to identify people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the appropriate treatment resources.

People with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more broad spectrum of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are commonly offered in hospital and residential rehab programs which can help with the initial stabilization process to get them detoxed and off of any drugs and medications they need to stop using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with clients in these settings to handle both issues concurrently with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before program completion develop a strong aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't immediately relapse because of either disorder being triggered.
