    Levels of Care Offered at Bayhealth Medical Center

    This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Aftercare Support, Inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient, Partial-Hospitalization, with additional therapies available as listed below.

    Inpatient treatment is the most intensive level of care, and it’s necessary for those who aren’t able to control their addiction. These patients also must be drug-free before attending inpatient programs .

    During inpatient treatment, addicts live at an inpatient facility 24 hours a day while receiving help. This type of program is generally recommended for those who need to go through detoxification or who are struggling with serious addiction-related issues.

    An Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a form of drug treatment that allows individuals to receive the therapy they need while remaining in their homes and community.

    An IOP is typically 3-5 days per week, at least 4 hours each day of treatment. Treatment can last for a few months or longer, depending on the situation.

    An IOP is a step down from an inpatient treatment center and can be used as a step down from an inpatient stay or as a more intense form of outpatient treatment. IOPs allow for the flexibility to continue working and living at home while still meeting treatment demands.

    The outpatient programs in Dover, DE are for those addicted drugs or alcohol. The goal of the outpatient rehabilitation program is to make them stop abusing drugs or alcohol, reduce drug use or addictive behaviors, and become entirely sober. It is generally required to attend the outpatient program for 10-12 hours every week.

    Patients can be administered on-the-spot medication to ease withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, increased heart rate, and even depression. Groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) can be used as a part of outpatient treatment to help maintain sobriety.

    A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), also known as an Aftercare Program, is a short-term intensive treatment program usually consisting of five (5) days a week. A PHP can be an effective alternative for those who cannot commit to living in a rehab facility 24/7 but require daily medical supervision. A PHP provides comprehensive addiction services seven (7) days a week and is usually attended by the addict every day.

    This allows addicts to continue working, stay close to their family and friends, and minimize disruptions to their daily routines. Upon entering a PHP, patients are assessed by Addiction Psychiatrists, Medical Doctors (MD), Nurses, Psychologists, and Therapists. This assessment will determine the appropriate level of care.

    Although PHP’s are similar to residential programs, they lack 24-hour supervision. This is because aftercare patients are still expected to follow the rules of their recovery and meet specific goals. This will allow them to assimilate back into society without relapse.

    Aftercare support is a service many addicts need to ensure their success at recovery. This service usually includes one-on-one or group therapies, assistance from a sponsor and other types of help designed to make sure the patient continues living a life free from drugs.

    Patients also may require medication to help them battle addiction. Some people have been able to successfully recover without additional medications, but others have found that they need help during their transition. Long-term, the patient must take the initiative to attend meetings and receive help from other addicts in recovery.

    Therapies & Programs

    People in addiction recovery can benefit from individual therapy. This type of therapy involves meeting with a therapist one-on-one. This allows for a personal and trusting relationship to be built so that the patient can be truly themselves and express any emotions they feel. Individual therapy leads to greater understanding and peace about your triggers for addiction and coping strategies to prevent relapse.

    Group therapy sessions are held in rehab facilities, clinics, churches or community centers that offer drug addiction treatment. People who attend these groups are encouraged to voice their feelings and support other addicts in recovery. This helps group members strengthen their own recovery program while cheering on others who are struggling with sobriety.
