What Are the Benefits of Inpatient Treatment For Addiction?

If you or someone you love is looking for substance abuse treatment, you have multiple levels of care. The most intense level of care is inpatient or residential care. There are many benefits of inpatient addiction treatment, and for individuals with serious addictions, or an unsupported home environment, inpatient treatment is often the best option.

Benefits of Inpatient Treatment

There are many benefits of residential substance abuse treatment. Many of these benefits of inpatient drug rehab come from the fact that you are residing full-time at the treatment facility, which means you have stepped away from any distractions or triggers in your regular environment and fully immerse yourself in a situation where you have caring staff members who get to know you personally and work with you during your treatment to meet your recovery goals.

Full-Time Recovery

Some of the benefits of inpatient drug rehab include stepping away from your regular environment and having a full-time recovery.

Outpatient programs might allow you to live at home during your treatment, but this means having to transport yourself to and from your treatment facility many days in a row to participate in your services and then returning to an environment that might not support your decision to get clean.

By comparison, you can reap many benefits of inpatient drug rehab because you don’t have to deal with everyday stresses from:

• Family
• Work
• School
• Home life
• Friends
• Environment

Stepping away from these potential triggers or sources of relapse can make it much easier to focus entirely on turning your attention Inward and facilitating long-term sobriety.

Healthcare Team

One of the benefits of inpatient treatment is getting to work with a team of healthcare professionals. At residential facilities, this team is often comprised of:

• Therapists
• Counselors
• Doctors
• Psychologists
• Psychiatrists
• Specialists, like yoga or meditation specialists

When you participate in a residential program, these team members have an opportunity to work together and work with you during your stay, creating things like recovery goals, reviewing progress, monitoring medication, and making changes where necessary. 

The longer you remain at an inpatient treatment center, the more opportunities you have to get to know each team member, develop trust with them, and explore things like contributing factors to your addiction and personalized trigger management skills. 

Supervision

One of the many benefits of inpatient addiction treatment is the fact that you have constant supervision. For individuals who are at risk for self-harm or harm to others, who cannot maintain complete independence, or who simply want accountability and support, inpatient programs provide full-time supervision from a team of professionals.

Ongoing Support

With inpatient programs, you have access to ongoing support. During the day, you are surrounded by people who are struggling with some of the same issues. You are also receiving treatment from a care team who has your best interests at heart. With this strong support network, you have others who can empathize, and you can feel much more supported as you transition through your recovery.

Many facilities provide multiple levels of care, which means after completing an inpatient program, you have the option of stepping down to a lower level in your transition, such as traditional outpatient care with regular weekly support groups. 

The Benefits of Inpatient Addiction Treatment with Centric Group

Centric Group offers inpatient care at multiple locations. What’s more, as you transition through different levels of care, we can help you utilize the step-down approach to find continuing support at our facility or in the local area. 

Specific Programs

We work with specialty groups for dedicated inpatient programs. Some clients, like first responders, veterans, or teens, benefit the most from specific inpatient programs.

Executives

Programs designed specifically for executives and other working professionals provide coping strategies and trigger identification associated with specific job demands. 

Healthcare Professionals

Healthcare professionals endure ongoing stress, long working hours, and burnout. Healthcare-specific programs can help people in this population find recovery without losing their professional licenses. 

Veterans

Military and veteran-specific programs can help people get help outside of the VA system. Veterans often struggle with PTSD, depression, and alcoholism without ever reporting it for fear of losing their clearance. Thankfully, veteran-specific group programs can provide a safe, supportive place for people with similar backgrounds to come together.
