Successful Interventions vs. Failed Interventions

Failed interventions vs. successful interventions

Intervention failures are often the result of poor planning and poor execution. Not knowing how to run an intervention can cause those involved to be unprepared for recovery refusal, negotiation tactics, or even violent and aggressive responses. Being able to adapt to any and every outcome can increase the success of a planned intervention and more often results in an individual accepting the help they need. With the guidance of a certified intervention specialist, families can be better equipped to stand their ground, plan everything ahead of time, and stay on the same page throughout the process. This guidance ensures the family and loved ones are able to identify and change their own behaviors, creating healthy change even if their loved one does not accept help at that moment.

Successful interventions, on the other hand, are usually led by a compassionate intervention specialist who works with the family through every step of the process. This includes helping them develop a customized recovery plan for their loved one, leading a pre-intervention rehearsal, and facilitating transportation to a predetermined recovery center. An intervention is considered successful when the individual accepts the help offered by the intervention team and the family is willing to look at and learn how their own behaviors can change to increase the chances of long-term recovery for the whole family system. Once they all agree to adhere to the established recovery plan, the next steps of their journey toward conquering the battle with addiction can begin.
