About Northpointe Behavioral Healthcare System
Northpointe Behavioral Health Systems is dedicated to empowering individuals and families throughout Michigan. They have a location in Iron River, Michigan, not far from the Apple Blossom Trail. They provide co-occurring disorder and substance abuse care alongside a variety of specialty programs for adults and children.
Their family services stand out to me for the amount of support they provide. It's not just counseling: Northpointe follows up with parenting support and wraparound services, too. This approach ensures that the family unit can heal together.
Support Developing Your Living Skills
Whether you choose Northpointe's outpatient option or go the residential route, it's a good opportunity to work on your social and living skills. The Community Living Supports program is wholly dedicated to teaching these skills. But what I find great about it is that it's personalized to your own goals.
That means you'll zero in on where you think you're lacking most. These areas can cover everyday tasks like doing your laundry to more long term goals like learning to identify community resources and healthy socialization. It's an excellent opportunity to focus even more on your needs in recovery.
Under the Watchful Eye of Care Management
But let's say you're unsure of what your recovery is missing. A professional care manager can help by observing your progress through treatment. They're trained to identify your strengths and weaknesses and recommend adjustments based on those factors.
Care managers look at your broader goals in treatment, not just recovery from substance abuse. This typically includes health and everyday living challenges. When you need assistance for issues outside the treatment program, they can make referrals on your behalf to get those resources.
Boosting Recovery with Vocational Support
The last program I want to draw attention to is their vocational support program. Unlike the Community Living Supports program, this one focuses on building work related skills. Developing new skills in general is a great boon to recovery, and having employment makes it likelier that you'll live and support yourself in the community.

Addiction Treatment Programs
Adult Program
No single adult program in Michigan is right for everyone. That’s why each program is tailored to meet the needs of the individual. Common aspects to an adult rehab program include individual counseling, group therapy, and aftercare support.Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an integrative, community-based care strategy designed to address the needs of persons with severe and/or complex mental illness or behavioral disorders. ACT is typically provided by a multidisciplinary team of medical and mental health care providers, social workers, therapists, and other specialists, including addiction recovery professionals. These services are frequently provided in the home and community to clients in crisis, those who are clinically unstable, and those who are unable or unwilling to travel to a hospital or clinic for in-person treatment.Levels of Care
