Conditions and Issues Treated
Opioid + Opiate Addiction Treatment
Opioid addiction is one of California‘s most prominent forms of addiction. Drugs, including heroin, oxycontin, and fentanyl, are the most common. To relieve pain, or ease other ailments, they are professionally prescribed, but they are often abused because they and the feelings they give are addictive.
Addiction is treated by detoxifying the body, so the medications’ chemicals are no longer impacting the individual. Wavelengths Recovery offers therapies to correct behavior and target the root of the problem are supplemented during and throughout treatment.
Levels of Care
This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Aftercare Support, Detox, Drug Rehab, Inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient, Partial-Hospitalization, Residential, with additional therapies available as listed below.
Detox treatment begins when the patient leaves their surroundings of family and friends, which is usually when they are most vulnerable. Being in a safe environment surrounded by medical professionals provides them with the safety net many of them need to get over their addiction. With kind and caring staff members, patients can feel relaxed, and they will need to start by admitting that they have a problem in order to get better.
If a person goes through detox treatment, they will understand their addiction better, and they won’t want to relapse and lose all the benefits of sobriety. They can see the effects of using drugs and how it makes them feel, which will make them want to quit their addiction.
Drug detox is vital to the recovery process, and it ensures that a patient will be in a safe environment during their withdrawal.
An inpatient is a person who stays in a hospital or rehab center during treatment. For alcohol- and drug-dependent individuals, inpatient rehabs provide individualized around-the-clock services. Inpatient treatment programs address a person’s unique physical, medical, and psychological needs. A team of experts assess the severity of the addiction and design a highly tailored program. typically, the length of stay in an inpatient facility in Huntington Beach, CA is 30 days. Those with severe addiction may need to stay at the facility for 60 to 90 days.
Intensive outpatient programs mostly conduct meetings on weekdays. Group therapy is the main element in most intensive outpatient programs. Most IOPs last for about 90 days and include drug use monitoring and testing. A California IOP, like what’s offerd at Wavelengths Recovery, take much more time than a standard outpatient program. Some programs offer other services as well, such as employment assistance and medication management.
Outpatient rehabilitation is a treatment that exists if a patient is not checking into Wavelengths Recovery long term. In addition to helping them recover, the patient attends regular therapy sessions and detox and participates in other therapies. However, this is all primarily done from home. As a follow-up to inpatient treatment, outpatient treatment is usually recommended.
After rehabilitation, it helps people return to their everyday lives. It may also be an alternative to inpatient care in some situations. If they cannot leave their jobs, children, or don’t have the money for inpatient care, people can choose this method. Inpatient therapy, however, is the best method and most suggested level of treatment offered by Wavelengths Recovery in recovering from addiction.
The halfway point between inpatient and outpatient care is Wavelengths Recovery‘s Partial Hospitalization Program. It is for individuals in California who struggle with addiction but do not need treatment round the clock. Patients may reside in a recovery facility anywhere from 18 to 30 hours per week, but they can sleep at home. The program length could be anywhere from one to six months.
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient’s individual requirements.
