What Types of Treatments Are Available?

Treatment options vary based on the individual's specific needs and the severity of their addiction. A professional clinical assessment is often the first step in determining the most effective treatment plan. Here's an overview of common options:

Withdrawal Management (Detoxification)

A structured process aimed at safely managing withdrawal symptoms which typically includes three key components: evaluation, stabilization, and preparation for entry into a long-term recovery program. Detox can be provided in both residential and outpatient settings, depending on the severity of the addiction.

Interim Care

For individuals facing delays in accessing treatment due to waitlists or availability issues, interim care offers daily medication management and emergency counseling services to bridge the gap until admission.

Outpatient Care

Treatment and counseling are provided at a facility while the individual continues to live at home. This option is ideal for those with a stable home environment and mild to moderate addiction.

Inpatient Care

Comprehensive, 24/7 treatment provided in a hospital or clinical setting. Individuals stay on-site for a duration ranging from several days to a few weeks, depending on their needs.

Residential Care

A longer-term treatment option where individuals live at a facility, receiving structured care for an extended period—often lasting from one month to a year. This approach provides a supportive environment for recovery.

Telemedicine

Virtual treatment options, including counseling and therapy, delivered via phone or internet. Telemedicine is particularly valuable in areas where local treatment resources are limited.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

A holistic approach combining FDA-approved medications with counseling and behavioral therapies. MAT is commonly used for treating substance use disorders, particularly opioid and alcohol dependencies.

Transition Homes

Designed for individuals who have completed the initial phase of addiction recovery and are ready to take the next step toward long-term stability. Prospective residents are typically in need of a supportive environment as they transition from rehabilitation to independent living. In our homes, residents receive ongoing support through life skills training, employment assistance, and spiritual guidance, ensuring they are equipped to thrive in society.

Each option plays a role in supporting recovery, and the best choice depends on personal circumstances and professional recommendations. For more information, consult a healthcare provider or treatment specialist.
