Family and Support Services

Chemical dependency affects more than just the person with the problem. Family, friends, loved ones, business associates and others may experience problems.
We offer programs designed to help and support not only the patient but also those close to him or her. Family and support services include:

  • Family Program - This program offers each patient and their family an opportunity to learn more about the disease of addiction, family systems and tools for recovery. This is an intensive 3 day multi-family program.
  • Family Education - A four-week series includes education and group meetings. Topics include the disease of addiction, communication, enabling and co-dependency. These groups are held on Wednesday nights and Saturday afternoons.
  • Parent Groups – These meetings are held Monday evening to educate parents on how to understand and cope with their loved one’s addictions and how to serve as a more effective parent while in recovery.
  • Multi-Family Process Groups- Groups led by licensed chemical dependency counselors to assist families in addressing their feelings, concerns, struggles and triumphs during the recovery process.
  • Aftercare (peer-led) - Services available for all our patients’ families. Theses groups encourage and teach families how to further use their recovery tools.
  • Al-Anon Meetings – Meetings for families and friends who have been affected by someone else’s drinking. Sessions help participants find solutions that lead to a more peaceful lifestyle. PaRC hosts Al-Anon meetings on Tuesday evenings.

BUILDING RECOVERY ONE LIFE AT A TIME

This is the slogan of the Memorial Hermann Prevention and Recovery Center (PaRC). This is Houston's most accomplished recovery center specializing in substance abuse treatment, alcohol rehab and drug intervention. This Houston, Texas based recovery center is one of the best detox centers in the country and is known for its groundbreaking and innovative treatment of both adults and adolescents. The PaRC is a premier alcohol and drug treatment facility. The PaRC helps both adults and adolescents deal with chemical dependency is positive way. The PaRC provides many forms of treatment which include detoxification, residential treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient throughout the greater Houston area, transitional living, Spanish speaking services, family services, and more.

ADMISSION

Before admission into any of the substance abuse treatment or drug intervention at this recovery center, patients will undergo a full psychological and physical evaluation. Based on the results of the evaluation patients will be enrolled into a customized treatment program. Each patient receives a list of required items (Co-payment for prescription medications-cash or credit card, 5 days of casual clothing, personal hygiene items, money for vending machines etc) as well as a list of prohibited items (weapons in any form, cell phones or Blackberrys, alcohol or drugs etc). Because the only secure place for belongings is the hospital safe, patients are discouraged from bringing excessive amounts of money or jewelry onto the premises as the hospital will not accept any responsibility for loss or theft of these items.

YOUNG ADULT PROGRAM

With an increasing number of 18-24 year olds becoming susceptible to substance abuse, the PaRC has created a number of custom programs which may be more effective than those of other detox centers. Alcohol rehab and drug intervention for these individuals takes into account the fact that their psychological emotional and behavioral and cognitive abilities have been influenced in some way. The program involves areas such as life skills classes, spirituality groups and specialized therapy groups to aid the patient in making a full recovery.

This recovery center understands that families are a huge part of the healing process for patients. The PaRC ensures that parents and family members are actively involved in the program - offering both reassurance and healing to both parties. We believe that chemical dependency is a family disease and we are here to help.

ADOLESCENT PROGRAM

The Memorial Hermann Prevention and Recovery Center (PaRC) Adolescent Program provides comprehensive alcohol and drug treatment for adolescents ages 13 to 17 suffering with primary substance abuse dependency as well as those struggling with co-occurring psychiatric disorders. The basic goals of the treatment program are to help the patient and family establish recovery and learn the skills to live effectively as the teen establishes abstinence-based sobriety. Trained to understand the unique development issues of adolescents such as peer pressure and self esteem, our highly qualified administrative and clinical staff is committed to providing treatment services to teenaged patients for detoxification, residential treatment, day treatment, intensive outpatient, family programming, educational curriculum, relapse prevention, aftercare, and much more.

A REHAB HOME AWAY FROM HOME

During your stay at the recovery center the staff tries their best to make your time in alcohol rehab and drug treatment as comfortable as possible. Patients will sleep in rooms with a roommate to ensure that no feelings of being alone arise. To ensure that patients are receiving the right nutrients, three balanced meals a day are provided. Family and friends are allowed to visit during designated visiting hours so that patients do not feel as though they are being ostracized. And finally, because relaxation is a key part of the recovery process, recreational facilities are provided as well. We believe that everyone deserves a new beginning and that recovery from drugs and alcohol is possible through a 12 step approach.
