Addiction Treatment for Professionals requires a special approach
Nurses, physicians, attorneys and other professionals treated for addiction and dual-diagnosis at BoardPrep Recovery, cherish the empathy and sensitivity shown by our team. Already at the lowest point of their lives, they feared being further humiliated. Instead, they experienced the warmth, compassion and professionalism that is commonplace at BoardPrep. Indeed, it was “just what the doctor ordered.”
Based on a comprehensive multi-disciplinary evaluation, BoardPrep individualizes treatment plans for professionals

The Collaborative Treatment Process
The first 3 phases of BoardPrep’s 5-phase system form the foundation for continued recovery in a less structured setting. Based on ongoing ASAM dimensional assessment, many clients are recommended to return home and continue their recovery in an outpatient or intensive outpatient setting.
When clients transition from B-phase to C-phase, a comprehensive clinical review is undertaken by the interdisciplinary treatment team. Clients are endorsed for transition to outpatient or intensive outpatient at 6 weeks (upon completion of C-phase) based on the following criteria:
- Behavioral stability and compliance with treatment plan
- Medication compliance, including Vivitrol when recommended
- Positive response to treatment
- Completion of individualized assignment packet
- Endorsement of professional monitoring program (med pros)
- “Pre-admission” to OP or IOP completed prior to transition
Making the right choice
Studies show that identifying with or relating to others in treatment is one key to early recovery. When a person goes to a rehab in a place where they feel they do not belong, because they cannot relate to others in the group, it can actually do more harm than good.
