About Bessemer Neighborhood Health Center
The Bessemer Neighborhood Health Center in Bessemer, Alabama, is one part of the Aletheia House network, one of the largest substance abuse treatment service providers in the state. This network has roots in community healthcare services that stretch back to the 1970s and continues its mission to deliver low-cost, preventive, and treatment programs to this day.
BNHC and other Aletheia House locations provide a number of services adjacent to and supportive of addiction recovery, too, such as other forms of healthcare and housing support. The result is an expansive roster of programs that can be uniquely tailored to your needs.
HIV/AIDS Support
One thing I find intriguing about this network is its inclusion of HIV/AIDS support in the substance use disorder treatment process. It makes sense: substance abuse has been linked to high risk behaviors (including those that can lead to infection), and devastating diseases like these can cause one to abuse drugs or alcohol to cope. The inclusion of HIV/AIDS in their scope allows this provider to provide more effective care for this clientele.
Employment Programs, Too
A key aspect of drug treatment that I noticed is helping clients find stability in their lives. One way this network does so is through its employment support services. I like this program because having a job can address so many aspects of achieving sobriety, including a stronger sense of self esteem and a source of income for supporting yourself.
Housing also includes home cooked meals, a nutritionist, transportation to and from appointments, and a separate women’s track within the Aletheia network. Bessemer is by the Southside Community Park if you feel the need to relax in the open.
Amenities
Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to get your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.
Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recover. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.
In order to maintain a sense of autonomy, many private rehab facilities offer clients the ability to choose their own private rooms. The privacy and personal space ensure that the recovery process is as comfortable as possible.
