Outpatient Care
Outpatient care provides flexible treatment for addiction recovery which allows patients to handle responsibilities alongside their addiction treatment. Outpatient care delivers organized therapeutic services with medical oversight in addition to relapse prevention measures to people who need to stay in their daily routines.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
- The program gives formal treatment services that enable patients to remain in their home environment.
- The program consists of separate one-on-one therapy as well as group therapy sessions.
- Standard Outpatient Care enables people to progress from hospital-based treatment toward independent recovery outside of the facility.
Standard Outpatient Care
- Patients in standard outpatient care receive fewer week-long treatment hours than PHP and IOP programs.
- The program combines counseling programs along with support group involvement and relapse avoidance training.
- Best for those with strong support systems at home.
Who is Outpatient Care For?
Outpatient rehab is ideal for individuals who:
- Have a mild to moderate addiction.
- Need a structured treatment program but can manage daily responsibilities.
- Have completed inpatient rehab and need continued support.
- Prefer a more affordable alternative to residential treatment.
