During this process, addicts will receive medication and psychological support from doctors and other medical professionals until they can control their cravings.

    When a patient checks into Swift River, inpatient care takes place. Patients undergo treatment that requires detoxification and counseling round the clock. While outpatient treatments are available in Massachusetts, as the first phase in recovery, inpatient care is suggested. Intensive and thorough rehabilitation sets patients on the road to a drug-free life.

    Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) comprise regular visits to the Massachusetts facility that provides the therapy. IOP is suitable for patients who have been treated in residential treatment programs. Swift River‘s patients gradually get back to their routine life.

    In outpatient programs at Swift River, the Cummington resident can live with their family while continuing with their job or studies. Treatment includes educating the patient on drug abuse, medications, and counseling sessions at the individual or group level.

    Partial hospitalization program (PHP) offered by Swift River is an alternate option for inpatient rehabs or residential programs. The patients stay in a Cummington facility closer to the Massachusetts treatment center and attend the different forms of therapy for several hours a day. Treatment duration varies 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.

    Therapies & Programs

    Addiction and alcoholism always harm an addict’s relationships with others and none more than relationships with a spouse or partner.

It gives loved ones the tools for dealing with addiction and its underlying mental issues. It is a recommended step in helping addicts adapt to sober living.

Accountability and friendship that is found in group therapy can be more effective than any single other treatment approach. With Swift River in Cummington, Massachusetts, there’s no reason to go through recovery alone.

    Trauma is one of the most common causes of psychological disorders. It’s often found in people with addiction diagnoses.

Swift River aims to help patients understand the relationship between their thoughts, feeling and behaviors and it gives them the tools to make a change. It is effective for those whose addictions and behaviors stem from extreme mental health issues.
