Dual Diagnosis

Multiple illnesses can often co-exist in a single person. Coexisting Disorders are commonly called dual diagnosis. Conservative estimates state that sixty to seventy percent of people entering addiction treatment has one or more co-existing conditions. Frequently, these multiple conditions complicate recovery. Patients overcome one area then fall victim to another condition in a vicious cycle of relapse and frustration.

Co-existing Conditions and Dual Diagnosis at C.A.R.E.

At C.A.R.E. we believe in treating the whole individual. We know that pain, emotional and/or physical can contribute to drug and alcohol use. We are fully aware that addiction can further complicate mental and physical ailments. Many treatment centers do not specialize in dual diagnosis or co-existing disorders but our counselors and addiction treatment program specialists recognize the existance of a co-existing disorder and define an entire treatment program around dual diagnosis patients attacking the mental disorder itself as well as the additction.

C.A.R.E.'s multi-disciplinary team will help you address each of these areas as our specialists work with you to identify the underlying causes of your problem and address them.
