Alcohol is by far the most frequent addiction across industrial countries. Associated with unrest, rejection and other negative counter-attitudes, alcohol dependence often confines the patient to isolation. The objective of this article is to describe potential obstacles to access to health care, the strategies enabling this access and finally different programs and therapeutic modalities of a long-term treatment. This article focuses on these issues in term of level of intervention.
