Inpatient Addiction Treatment
Adult Chemical Dependency Program: Your Road To Recovery
Medical Detoxification
West Hills’ chemical detoxification program is supervised by Dr. Eric Lamberts, who is a Fellow of American Academy of Family Practice and is certified by the American Society of Addiction Medicine. With his 28 years of experience, Dr. Lamberts brings expertise, dedication and the highest quality of care to our patients. The program consists of a 3-5 day inpatient stay under the supervision of Dr. Lamberts, addictions counselors and nursing staff.
Inpatient Rehabilitation
In addition to the medical detox, a 14-day inpatient rehabilitation program allows our patients
to benefit from the most effective addiction treatment — a combination of medication and
counseling. Our patients attend five daily group therapy sessions with experienced addictions
counselors who encourage them to examine negative feelings, cope with daily stressors, and
learn skills to help prevent relapse.
Intensive Outpatient Program
Our chemical dependency intensive outpatient program (CD-IOP) is focused on recovery
and relapse prevention and is composed of process, therapy and psycho-educational groups.
It runs four times per week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday) from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., with a light dinner served at every meeting.
Aftercare
Free aftercare groups are held every Wednesday 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Aftercare groups are designed to provide ongoing long-term support for clients who completed the CD-IOP series or the inpatient detoxification program.
