Inpatient is a 24/7 program. It is strongly recommended for people who would probably continue to use if they went to their own home every night. The usual tests for inpatient are if someone's health, relationships or work are being damaged by alcohol or drug use.
Many drinkers or drug users, if left alone, would drink or use. Checking into a residential program 24/7 helps you break the cycle of drinking or using. Most of the people that are living at the facility are too weak to just cut down on the drinking.
The basic premise for the program is a successful approach which involves directly learning the skills of planned abstinence in a sober living environment. We work with each client independently to develop a program to help him or her understand the dynamics of their addiction and to give them the necessary tools/support for sustained abstinence.
Programs vary from 28 to 90 days depending on the needs and progress of the client.
We also offer two other programs, the outpatient program (three days a week program) and the online program. The outpatient treatment is more for people that are just starting to see the signs of damage and feel they can function in the world by attending treatment three days a week.
