Inpatient/Residential Drug Rehab

Inpatient drug and alcohol rehab centers require you to live at the rehab facility, which gives you a chance to focus on recovery without outside distractions. While surrounded by supportive staff and peers, you will likely be involved in daily groups and activities. 

With an inpatient treatment program, behavioral therapy, group therapy, individual counseling, and holistic activities can help you gain healthy coping skills and prepare you for long-term recovery.

Outpatient Treatment

Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) and intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) vary in intensity but require multiple treatment sessions per week. Each day of treatment will entail three or more hours of therapy sessions, including group and individual counseling. 

Outpatient recovery programs are not as restrictive as inpatient rehab and may be more effective following an inpatient stay.

Opioid & Alcohol Treatment Programs

A medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program may be an effective treatment option if you experience opioid or alcohol addiction. 

MAT programs utilize the use of FDA-approved medications, including Suboxone, methadone, and naltrexone, to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. 

When combined with behavioral therapy, MAT programs may encourage you to remain in treatment and lower the risk of alcohol or drug abuse.

Aftercare

Following an inpatient or outpatient rehab program, you will be connected with aftercare services. High-quality aftercare services promote long-term recovery, reduce the risk of further substance use, and coordinate services for a healthy well-being. 

12-step groups (like Alcoholics Anonymous), relapse prevention, sober living, and educational/vocational services are some of the resources that may become available to you.
