What kind of treatment works best?

There is debate about what kind of treatment works the best. There are choices between inpatient treatment, outpatient treatment, AA, and of course the "nothing but the person's change of heart" approach. An argument can be made for almost any of these treatment approaches.

Sometimes it will be obvious which approach is more suitable. For example, if the person is in an acute crisis, inpatient care is more than likely advisable. Cost considerations also drive treatment decisions. The Interventionist could favor one approach over another.

Again, your Interventionist has a broad range of knowledge of the treatment resources available. Be open and discuss all these considerations.
