Häirekeskuse

Häirekeskus is a type of mental health treatment facility in Estonia. It is specifically designed to treat individuals with substance use disorders, as well as those experiencing mental health issues related to addiction.

The primary goal of a häirekeskus is to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to receive intensive treatment and support services. These facilities offer a range of therapeutic programs and interventions aimed at addressing the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction.

Häirekeskused typically provide 24-hour care, which includes a combination of individual and group therapy sessions, counseling, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs. These programs are designed to help individuals manage withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and develop coping mechanisms to sustain long-term recovery.

Admission to a häirekeskus is usually voluntary, but in some cases, individuals may be referred by a healthcare professional or a court order. Treatment duration can vary from several weeks to several months, depending on individual needs and progress.

The treatment approach at häirekeskused often incorporates evidence-based practices, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and family therapy. A multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and nurses, work together to develop and implement individualized treatment plans.

After completion of the treatment program, individuals are often connected with community-based services and support networks to help them maintain their recovery and reintegrate into society.
