Detox is the stage of recovery where the drugs or alcohol are entirely removed from your body. There are two different ways to detox, with medications and without. For many drugs and alcohol, the acute phase of detox can be completed in a number of days.
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.
The outpatient programs in Palm Springs, CA 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.
A Sober Living Home (SLH) is a term used to describe houses where people recovering from addiction can stay. The goal of these places is to provide immediate support and protection that the addict needs and force them to live a life free from substance abuse. SLH’s typically allow the addict to live there for 30, 60, or 90 days.
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.
The main goal of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehabilitation and address their addiction.
Interventions are meetings organized by friends and family of an individual with addiction. A specialist is present to lead the discussion and motivate the addict to seek external support. Intervention services help family members to open up about their feelings and concern for the addict. This expressiveness usually results in the addict seeking treatment at a rehabilitation facility.
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

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.
