Hospital inpatient programs are rehabilitation centers for substance abuse, which give a private and clinical setting for those in recovery. A hospital inpatient program may be a beneficial choice for someone that has a co-occurring mental health disorder, and someone with other medical requirements which might need to be overseen by medical experts. Individuals who partake in that program can be helped by mental health services whilst addressing issues who have prompted their drug abuse. Often individuals with a co-occurring mental health disorders use drugs or alcohol to self medicate rather than effectively responding to their disorder. Professional rehabilitation counselors in a hospital inpatient program can help individuals turn things around so that they will no longer find the necessity to use drugs and alcohol in this way, and instead create solutions to make their mental health issue more manageable. Medicine is often used to do this, however this isn't the solution needed in every case. For example, even slight environmental modifications in one's life can relieve stress and place a new perspective on things so the individual doesn't feel compelled to abuse alcohol or drugs. Therapy in the hospital inpatient program can help reveal such problems so they can be resolved.
