Lortab Abuse & Addiction Treatment Center in Georgia

Learn More About the Treatment We offer for Lortab Abuse

Lortab is a combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen that is often prescribed to treat pain. This drug is particularly dangerous because hydrocodone is an addictive substance that can lead to death by respiratory depression; acetaminophen can also lead to deadly overdoses, usually through liver damage. Many individuals who suffer chronic pain conditions do develop physical dependence upon the drug as the areas of the brain stimulated by Lortab come to rely upon the drug. Individuals who opt to take Lortab for the pleasurable feelings it produces or as a means to cope with heavy emotional burdens may develop a psychological addiction to the drug. Often, dependent individuals believe that they cannot function properly without Lortab. Dependent individuals may resort to taking higher and higher doses of the drug more often to manage emotional distress. It is then that it becomes imperative to seek treatment at a rehab center.

Lortab addiction can wreak havoc on all areas of an individual’s life. Functioning at work or school may become a challenge. Addicts may not be able to fulfill responsibilities at home or work. In addition, the health consequences associated with abusing Lortab can become life-threatening. It’s time to break free from your Lortab addiction and reclaim your life. You can do it. Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center in Georgia is here to help.

Types of Treatment Offered at Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center

Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center is a sub-acute detoxification and intensive residential Lortab addiction treatment center that offers rehab for men and women 18 years of age and older who have been experiencing a variety of substance use disorders, and potential co-occurring mental and behavioral health disorder. Located in Ball Ground, Georgia, on 40 acres of wooded countryside in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, our recovery campus provides our clients with the opportunity to heal in a comforting, nature-filled environment.

Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center is dedicated to offering the highest quality of treatment that is designed around each unique client. We approach care from the holistic model, understanding that substance use disorder is a disease of the system and not simply the person. We have designed a program that draws from numerous therapeutic models and treatment techniques consisting of a number of evidence-based treatment models.

Because each man or woman receives care that has been tailored according to his or her needs, strengths, and treatment goals, each client receives an individualized treatment plan at Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center. Depending on their unique needs, clients are usually placed in one of two programs:

Residential Sub-acute Detoxification Treatment

In some cases, individuals who have been experiencing an addiction to Lortan struggle with also being physically dependent on the substance. For those who meet this description, and who have had great difficulty ending the Lortan abuse prior to entering treatment at Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center, we provide medically monitored detoxification services to ease the process.

Blue Ridge is one of the few treatment centers in Georgia offers a full range of clinical and sub-acute medical services, including medically supervised detox, and is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our detoxification services begin with a complete evaluation of the client’s Lortab abuse history, current characteristics, and patterns of use. Each individual is supervised by our medical director and nursing staff to ensure safe detoxification and a more comfortable withdrawal process. Once an individual has completed detox with us, he or she can then transition directly into residential treatment.

Clinically Managed Residential Lortab Rehab Center

Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center offers residential treatment that keeps recovery simple, yet logical. Residential treatment includes individual therapy, group therapy, activities designed to heighten wellness, and medical management of symptoms (as needed).

Individual Therapy: During rehab, we offer a number of treatment techniques in individual therapy, including psycho-social education, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, music therapy, relapse prevention, relapse recovery and multiple family therapy models. Individual treatment sessions at our center between a client who is in rehab for Lortab abuse and a trained professional can provide valuable opportunities for the client to process successes and setbacks, address specific issues related to his or her recovery, and receive essential guidance and feedback.

Group Therapy: We implement groups at our treatment center based on three learning styles; cognitive (intellectual learning), effective (emotional learning) and skills development (“how to” learning). Our rehab is designed to engage the spiritual, emotional, mental, physical, social, legal and vocational needs of our clients helping them transform their whole person.

Medical Management of Symptoms: Medical management of mental health symptoms may be provided as needed. If our initial medical evaluation indicates that a client may benefit from medications while in treatment, he or she may receive medication management services from our psychiatrists and certified registered nurse practitioners.

Family Therapy: At our treatment center, we believe that it is vital to provide education and guidance to the family and loved ones of our clients in need of rehab for Lortab addiction. Our family program is provided, at no additional cost, to immediate family members and loved ones of clients at our residential treatment center. Approximately every three weeks, we offer family and loved ones the opportunity to participate in our two-day long family workshop. This experience seeks to include family members and loved ones in the recovery journey and provides the opportunity for family to learn more about addiction and recovery. We also provide family sessions throughout each client’s stay as deemed appropriate by their therapist.

The Expedition– Relapse Recovery Program: “The Expedition” is our relapse recovery programming which is an excursion to uncover the truth and reestablish a strong foundation in sobriety. It is specifically designed to help those who have relapsed truly recover from their set back. This programming at our treatment center requires the development of a personalized relapse recovery plan in which clients and their families or loved ones will:

• Complete multiple assessments, one being a relapse assessment
• Get reintroduced to relapse prevention skills
• Reestablish health boundaries and communication
• Develop an aftercare plan
• Participate in peer support activities

We structure this program around the same three learning styles we utilize in our residential treatment; cognitive (intellectual learning), effective (emotional learning) and skills development (“how to” learning). We want to engage the spiritual, emotional, mental, physical, social, legal and vocational needs of our clients helping them transform from their relapse back into a healthy, whole person.

At Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center, we understand that for individuals who are in need of rehab for Lortab addiction, residential treatment is often just one step in the long journey of recovery. To ensure that each client is best prepared to maintain and build upon the progress that he or she makes while in treatment with us, we begin planning for discharge the day the individual enters our program. When a client leaves Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center, he or she will have a thorough plan that identifies the professional referrals, community-based organizations in Georgia or elsewhere, and other external resources that will support his or her successful pursuit of long-term recovery.
