Our unique and comprehensive approach to alcohol detox combines proven medical detoxification methods with effective therapeutic care. Some of the addiction services we provide include an in-depth clinical and medical assessment, case management services, individual, group and family therapy sessions and thorough aftercare planning.

Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in New Jersey

Alcohol abuse and alcoholism remain major health-related threats throughout the state of New Jersey. According to the New Jersey Department of Health, binge drinking is one of the most serious and dangerous substance related issues throughout the state. Binge drinking is characterized by consuming five or more alcoholic beverages over the course of one hour (men) or four or more alcoholic beverages over the course of one hour (women). In the state of New Jersey, 16.7 percent of adults over the age of 18 reported binge drinking within the past 30 days in the year 2017 alone. The same study suggests that, “ In 2019, there were 98,628 treatment admissions and 96,482 discharges reported to the New Jersey Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services by substance abuse treatment providers.”

Excessive alcohol consumption is associated with chronic liver disease, fetal alcohol syndrome, numerous other chronic and acute health-related issues and accidents, injuries and violence.

Every year, the United Health Foundation publishes a comprehensive substance abuse study titled, “America’s Health Rankings.” This study concluded that the rates of excessive drinking among female New Jersey residents was 11.7 percent and rates of excessive drinking among male New Jersey residents was 19.1 percent in the year 2019.
