The Family Intervention Process

When you contact a professional interventionist to come to Alaska, the initial time is spent with the family. This process is preparing the family for what is to come.  Newman Interventions will help you get key family members involved, especially those the addict looks up to or even still respects.  Coordinated family involvement is the key to a successful intervention.  A certified interventionist guides the family through the process and mitigates the situations brought up by your loved one.

Rehabilitation is what is needed to put the addicted person back in positive control of his or her life.  An addict will not understand the importance of treatment until Newman Interventions helps the family show him or her what their addiction is doing to them. Addiction causes the addict to have blinders on, and things are not seen until they are dramatically pointed out. Unfortunately, there are many remote communities in Alaska, and anyone is susceptible to addiction. When an interventionist travels to Alaska, they intend to get your loved one into treatment.

Are There Drug Rehab Programs in Alaska?

There are quite a few residential drug rehab programs situated in Alaska. One of the first steps when working with a family is arranging treatment for when the intervention is a success. We also help families explore the different ways to cover the cost of drug rehab.

• Costs vary significantly for residential substance use treatment, ranging between $12,000 and $60,000.
• Most substance use treatment programs in Alaska accept Medicaid and private health insurance.
• On average, Alaska private residential long-term drug rehab costs $52,030.
• Many of the treatment centers offer payment options such as sliding fee scales.

Short-term or long-term residential drug rehab is the best option. Our certified intervention team is familiar with many programs in the state. We help each family find the best affordable option. 

 Substance Abuse Trends in Alaska

Families with loved ones who are addicts face the stress of the addiction daily. According to the state of Alaska Epidemiological Profile, nine out of ten leading causes of death in Alaska are associated with substance abuse. Alcohol consumption in the state was consistently greater than the national average.

Approximately one in five hospital patients had suspected or proven alcohol use. The regions with the highest drug-induced death rates were found in Anchorage, Mat-Su, Juneau, and Kenai Peninsula. When you contact Newman Interventions, you are taking control of the situation. Starting the process for intervention is giving your loved one a chance to beat the addiction.
