Profile: Hemet Valley Recovery Center

The Hemet Valley
Addiction Recovery Center Partnership

Valley Health System and Addiction Medicine Services Inc. saw the need for a chemical dependency treatment center that was hospital-based and able to assist patients in all aspects of their care, from acute medical detoxification through rehabilitation and aftercare. Opening in 2001, the center has drawn a professional staff that is second to none in experience and quality and has gained the reputation as a facility able to succeed in the treatment of difficult and complex cases.

Located in Southern California, Hemet is between Palm Springs to the east and Riverside to the west. Nestled at the base of the San Jacinto Mountains, Hemet is large enough to support a regional medical center and small enough to provide a confidential environment for treatment.

Chemical Dependency Treatment
Philosophy

We believe that Chemical Dependency is a primary illness that is describable, progressive, chronic, potentially fatal, and treatable. It is an all-pervasive disease that affects mind, body, and spirit. Cross addiction from one substance to another is a reality of the disease and therefore, abstinence from all mind and mood altering substances is a required aspect of recovery. Chemical Dependency is a family disease affecting everyone in the family system. To be most effective, treatment must be extended to all family members concurrently so that the family recovers together.

The therapeutic process at the Hemet Valley Recovery Center & Sage Retreat occurs within a holistic, cognitively-oriented framework. It is facilitated through educational, task oriented and process groups. Introduction to the twelve step program and philosophy is a component of treatment.
