Although official autopsy results haven’t been revealed in the death of Amy Winehouse, one thing that the world does know: addiction problems plagued this young, talented musician.

The death of Ms. Winehouse has shown the world that addiction problems are a global issue, not isolated to any particular geographical area or specific demographic profile. It’s a problem that the world must conquer, together.

“The death of Amy Winehouse brings addiction to the forefront and the attention of the world,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center. “While the cause of her death isn’t fully known, her addiction struggles have been public knowledge for several years. Her death is a terrible tragedy and shows the importance of keeping the lines of communication open with young people about the dangers of alcohol and drugs. Nowadays, the very individuals who young people idolize are often those who, by chance, get caught up in the cycle of addiction. It shows that no one is beyond the deadly reach of drugs and alcohol.”

Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center is a modern drug rehab facility that is skilled in serving a variety of clients with various addictions and in varying stages of their addiction. The caring, compassionate team is made up of licensed and certified counselors as well as social workers who have extensive experience and specialty in the addiction treatment field. In addition, the staff includes a Nurse Practitioner, as well as a Registered Nurse, both of whom also have specializations and experience within the field of addiction treatment and alcohol rehab.

Mountainside also provides services for those individuals who come to them with dual diagnoses and require the services of a Psychiatrist to help conquer the unique challenges that dual diagnosis brings.

For the past 13 years, Mountainside has established itself as an innovator within the addiction treatment field, and the treatment modalities Mountainside utilizes are regarded as among the most cutting-edge approaches in helping individuals to get, and to remain, sober.

The program, along with its professional addiction treatment team, have earned national recognition and resulted in Mountainside being invited to Washington by the White House to meet with the White House Drug Czar, John P. Walters, for an in-depth meeting on what makes its program so successful. These accolades did not go unnoticed within the addiction treatment field and resulted in the adoption by many throughout the country of a more holistic approach to drug addiction treatment.
