Outpatient Rehab Program To Help Lindsay Lohan Get Right Back To Comfortably Erratic Work Routine

Outpatient Rehab Program To Help Lindsay Lohan Get Right Back To Comfortably Erratic Work Routine
With its highly publicized "get" of high-profile starlet-in-distress Lindsay Lohan, the Wonderland Center automatically becomes the hottest rehabilitation center in Los Angeles, and surely will prove the destination of choice for other Hyde regulars looking to make proactive decisions about their health. But what made Lohan choose Wonderland over the many fine sobering-up options that living in one of the most drug-addled cities on the planet affords her? The facility recognizes that those who toil in the entertainment industry are far too busy to throw away 28 potential shooting days on recovery, and has tailored its outpatient offerings to reflect this fact of Hollywood life. Radar points us to the passage on the Wonderland website describing their industry-friendly services:

Wonderland realizes that life does not come to a stop when a client comes in for treatment. Making the commitment to receive help is an essential step. Since Wonderland is located in Los Angeles, the backbone of the entertainment industry, we recognize that many of our clients have careers in the performance arts. For countless years, it has been accepted that the performing arts go hand-in-hand with a bleak history of alcoholism and addiction. How many successful artists have been cut down in their prime by these chronic and fatal diseases? How many more have had their careers shortened and their reputations stained on account of a tabloid explosion in relation to alcoholism and addiction? Recognizing the necessity of performers fulfilling pre-existing commitments when they are in desperate need of treatment, Wonderland has developed a working solution to this all-too-familiar problem.
Our solution begins with the understanding that life and work do not stop on account of a performer needing treatment. If an actor must fulfill contractual obligations at a point when treatment is a necessity, we have developed a balance that will allow both objectives to be realized. Our first example is an actor who is working on a film and needs to be on set and needs immediate treatment. Wonderland will provide a Sober Companion or Sober Assistant to assist with this situation. Sober Companions and Sober Assistants will travel back and forth with the client to the set, allowing the client to keep their external life on track while finding the path of recovery. Sober Companions may prevent extensive damage to a career, a pocketbook or a reputation.

There you have it: with the help of a Wonderland-supplied Sober Assistant, Lohan can fall right back into her comfortable professional routine of showing up hours late to set, saving her producers from the trouble of drawing up a new production schedule accounting for the possibility that their star might unexpectedly arrive for shooting at her assigned call time.
