Conditions and Issues Treated

Substance Abuse + Addiction Treatment

Substance abuse refers to the intensive and inappropriate use of psychoactive substances. These include illegal drugs, alcohol, and even the excessive use of prescription drugs. Overuse of these substances leads to severe physical or psychological dependence.

Substance abuse is treatable and the duration of treatment and most successful sobriety can require weeks or months of professional care at Affordable Recovery Housing in Blue Island.

Opioid + Opiate Addiction Treatment

Opioid addiction treatment facilities like Affordable Recovery Housing support people struggling with opioid dependency, which covers illegal and prescription opioids. People often abuse prescription opioids to get high instead of adhering to a medical provider’s directions. Addiction forces people to crave for opioids impulsively without factoring in the dangers these drugs bring to them.

Most opioid addiction treatment plans include detoxification and subsequent medications to ease the process. However, that’s only the beginning. Behavioral therapies and counseling are also necessary to resolve the root cause of addiction. This overall approach decreases the likelihood of falling off the wagon. In some instances, therapies can be done at home.

Levels of Care

This center offers a variety of custom treatment tailored to individual recovery. Currently available are Drug Rehab, Inpatient, Residential, Sober-Living / Half-Way, with additional therapies available as listed below.

Inpatient treatment for addiction is generally not as scary as it might sound. It is a way to find recovery while being in a supportive and controlled environment. The duration of treatment at Affordable Recovery Housing in Blue Island can be different based on each individual. Many can leave after 28 days; some may stay a few months, and others may stay six months or longer.

After completing treatment, sober living homes are Blue Island homes where addicts have the opportunity to go. Affordable Recovery Housing programs encourage a lifestyle of sober living. To keep residents clean, curfews, chores, and counseling sessions are implemented. To help recovering addicts transition to the outside world, vocational preparation and other resources are also offered.

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.
