Medical Drug & Alcohol Detox

A medically supervised detox is a safe environment that helps you through the difficult withdrawal process. You will receive 24/7 staff support and medication for severe symptoms, if necessary.  

Detoxing in a supervised setting helps prepare you for long-term treatment, including outpatient and inpatient programs. 

Residential/Inpatient Drug Rehab

Depending on your unique treatment needs, you may be placed into a drug and alcohol rehab center. Rehab facilities provide a structured setting with around-the-clock supervision from trained professionals. 

Most residential programs offer a wide range of services, including behavioral therapy, treatment counseling, peer support groups, and group therapy.  

Outpatient Treatment

Outpatient treatment is a more flexible option if you have a solid support system and responsibilities that you cannot abandon. Outpatient treatment may also be beneficial after an intensive inpatient program. 

Outpatient programs generally prioritize group therapy but most also provide family therapy, individual counseling, and behavioral therapy. 

Opioid & Alcohol Treatment Programs

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs utilize medication and behavioral therapy to help reduce cravings and promote long-term recovery. 

Most MAT programs in McHenry County are not licensed to offer methadone but may offer vivitrol, buprenorphine, and naloxone. However, there are methadone services available in Elgin and other nearby cities. 

Aftercare

Aftercare services help you maintain long-term recovery and a positive support network following your rehab program. 

In Algonquin, you may have access to sober-living opportunities, 12-step support groups, ongoing counseling, and other recovery services.
