Family relationships play a vital role in the recovery process. Therefore, Palmetto's Continuous Family Counseling Program is committed to enhancing and strengthening family relationships for the individual in treatment as well as for family members.

Individuals may be admitted to Palmetto for a three-day period to assess the presence and extent of their usage. Utilizing a multi-disciplinary team, clients are evaluated for substance use disorders, process addictions, or any psychiatric condition using current DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. For assessment, a client's information is gather from the following sources including: medical history, physical exam, addiction medicine assessment, laboratory studies, psychosocial history, psychiatric evaluation, psychological testing, and collateral sources. During this evaluation, clients attend didactic group sessions and group therapy in order to provide insight regarding severity of substance use and their progression in the disease process. The information and impressions gathered are discussed in the daily treatment team meeting, and an evaluation is shared with the client on the third day.
