The inpatient rehab at Embark at Atlanta North promises an intense and effective treatment. Inpatient rehabs are particularly recommended for those with a severe addiction to drugs. Detoxing at a rehab center ensures that the patient receives 24-hour medical supervision to ensure the best possible chance of recovery. Medical staff is readily available to intervene in case of withdrawal symptoms or other complications. This is not the case with outpatient treatment, where patients may be discharged after the detoxification process is complete.
Inpatient facilities provide residential and holistic treatment, with access to experienced medical professionals and rehab specialists. This ensures the best possible recovery and is recommended for patients with severe addiction seeking drug treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) are a form of drug treatment that allows individuals to receive the therapy they need while remaining in their homes and community. IOPs allow for the flexibility to continue working and living at home while still meeting treatment demands.

Benefits include being able to continue relationships with family, friends, and work/studies. Treatment includes educating patient on addiction to drugs, medication, and counseling.

A Partial Hospitalization Program is the safest way for a person suffering from addiction to get treatment without putting their family at risk. The addict has the freedom to check in and out of treatment, yet they still receive outside guidance and confinement if needed to beat their addiction.
An addict in a Partial Hospitalization Program will meet with medical and psychological professionals and undergo drug testing, all of which can lead to a diagnosis and the beginning of an effective treatment plan. Treatment can include individual counseling, group therapy, family therapy, community support sessions, and more.
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
Individualized Treatment is essential because it gives addicts the ability to participate in a program that meets their unique needs. An addict should work with professionals who understand what they’re going through, especially if the addict is actively using.
Trying to find a treatment program that meets your needs can be challenging. It’s even more complicated if you don’t know what kind of treatment you need. Being able to have professionals who are experienced with treating your situation is key to getting sober. Finding the right treatment program for an addict is difficult, but it’s even harder without communicating with those who have experience treating your specific situation.
Family dysfunction can often be the underlying cause of substance abuse. To get sober, you need to find a different way to cope with the pain in your life. Family therapy can help you and your family deal with old issues that may trigger substance abuse. It will help everyone understand why each member of the family feels and acts the way they do. It can give everyone new tools to manage their emotions so that they don’t want to drink or do drugs.

It benefits patients by providing a feeling of support and letting them know they are not alone.
