Outpatient Treatment Programs


  Addiction Day Treatment



  Addiction Day Treatment is an outpatient form of 
  rehabilitation treatment offered to addicted individuals who 
  need to establish a pattern of recovery in their lives. It 
  is appropriate for persons who are physically and 
  emotionally stable enough to receive treatment during the 
  day and return to their homes during the evening. These are 
  patients who need the benefit of a full day of structured 
  therapeutic activities to establish a recovery pattern.


  These individuals may start their recovery in the Inpatient 
  Unit, or they may begin in a less intensive modality, such 
  as an evening Outpatient Program. Unlike traditional 
  Inpatient Treatment, Addiction Day Treatment involves less 
  than a full day of peer support; however, the patient 
  benefits from the daily support of family and friends.


  The Addiction Day Treatment Program begins at 8 a.m. Monday 
  through Saturday. Services are provided on the Adult Unit of 
  the IIAR. Patients are assigned a counselor and attend
  group therapy, lectures and discussions along with Adult Unit
  Inpatients. Patients may stay as long as 5 p.m. each day; 
  however, arrangements can be made to leave earlier if work 
  schedules require. Aftercare is provided following all 
  rehabilitation services.
  

 
  Addiction Day Treatment is provided on a variable length of 
  stay model. Every patient has his or her own individualized 
  treatment plan. As the objectives of the plan are completed, 
  a patient moves on to the next phase of treatment. The 
  typical patient can expect to participate in the program for 
  two to four weeks. Sometimes Addiction Day Treatment 
  patients may benefit from a transfer to the Outpatient 
  Treatment Program­ which meets for four hours each evening, 
  Monday through Thursday­ before starting Aftercare.


  
Aftercare


  
Patients are expected to attend the regular weekly group 
  Aftercare meetings following discharge from Addiction Day 
  Treatment. Aftercare is provided following all 
  rehabilitation services and is available days and evenings. 
  Adult Aftercare generally lasts three to four months.

Young Adult Addiction Day Treatment

  

The Young Adult Addiction Day Treatment Program is a 
  specific form of Outpatient Rehabilitation. It may be the 
  first service for individuals seeking recovery, or a second 
  service on their continuum of care.


  Young Adult Addiction Day Treatment is appropriate for 
  individuals ages 12-21 who are addicted to alcohol, drugs or 
  gambling and in need of treatment to establish a pattern of 
  recovery in their lives. The most appropriate young adult 
  will be one who is physically and emotionally stable enough 
  to receive services after school and return home in the 
  evening.


  The program begins at 1:45 p.m., Monday through Friday. 
  Patients will also be assigned some days of Saturday 
  treatment. Services are provided on the Young Adult Unit of 
  the Institute. After the young adult is assigned a 
  counselor, he or she attends group therapy sessions, 
  lectures and recreation activities along with Young Adult 
  Unit inpatients. The program follows a different schedule 
  each day; however, patients are usually dismissed by 6 p.m. 
  Saturday programming runs from 9 a.m. through 4 p.m.


  The major difference between Young Adult Addiction Day 
  Treatment and traditional Inpatient Treatment is the volume 
  of peer interaction available to the young adult. When a 
  person lives in the hospital, they receive the benefit of 24 
  hour care and the increased influence of a peer support 
  group. Addiction Day Treatment patients have been assessed 
  as stable enough to "stay clean" during the evening without 
  this peer support.


  Patient care is directed by an individualized treatment plan 
  created by our treatment team. Team members include 
  physicians, counselors, nurses, recreational therapists and 
  clergy personnel. Psychiatric consultation is available when 
  necessary. Young adults participating in this program are 
  expected to attend Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous 
  and/or Gamblers Anonymous meetings during the week. Their 
  families are also expected to participate in the family care 
  services provided by the IIAR.


  There is no preset length of stay in this program, because 
  every patient has his or her own individualized treatment 
  plan. The speed with which a person moves through Addiction 
  Day Treatment really depends on his or her ability to accept 
  the disease of addiction and begin practicing the principals 
  of recovery. Treatment has two components, an intensive 
  component (Addiction Day Treatment, or Phase I) and a 
  follow-up component (Aftercare, or Phase II). As patients 
  meet the objectives on their treatment plan, they move on to 
  the next level of care. 


  The typical young adult can expect to participate in four to 
  five months of Phase II. Failure to complete this phase is a 
  failure to complete treatment. Individuals who fail to 
  complete Phase II typically relapse within a year. Patients 
  in the Young Adult Addiction Day Treatment Program are 
  expected to attend regular weekly Phase II groups for three 
  to four months; families are expected to attend Family Phase 
  II as well.
