Objective: This purpose of this empirical study was to identify factors affecting recovery of hospitalized alcoholic patients. Method: The subjects of the study were those hospitalized in 11 mental health institutions in Dae-gu after being diagnosed as alcoholics based on the DSM-V standard. Using the SPSS 21.0 program, frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, simple correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis of 215 cases were conducted. Results: After identifying factors impacting recovery of alcoholic patients, environment of the joint recovery program, self-esteem, type of hospitalization and social support were revealed to play significant roles. Conclusion: There must be an intervention plan that assists involuntary hospitalized patients to accept their illness and help them actively participate in treatment. Also, it was revealed that programs that positively change the self-concept of alcoholics and induce them to have more confidence in abstaining from alcohol are needed to enable them to establish positive self-concept.
