Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

inpatient iconInpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehabs provide intensive clinical supervision and robust daily treatment to clients in early recovery and those who are at an elevated relapse risk. Inpatient care is often the first stage of treatment following detox, and it allows clients to focus exclusively on their recovery in a highly structured and supportive environment. Clients typically engage in daily addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training. Many treatment centers also offer holistic therapies, such as massage, meditation, and acupuncture.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs provide robust continuing care for clients in outpatient rehab and those who have been discharged from formal treatment. These programs address addiction disease as a chronic condition and recovery as a life-long process requiring ongoing client support. Clients in drug rehab aftercare receive a wide variety of services, often including peer coaching, relapse prevention support, and 12 step program induction. Case managers and care teams typically collaborate on the client's long-term care plan.

12-step icon12-Step

12 step programs are designed to address the root causes of addiction and to promote sustained recovery through peer support and personal growth. Participants receive one-on-one mentoring from a self-selected sponsor and engage in regular 12 step meetings, which are free, anonymous, open to the public, and available day and night in most communities. These programs deploy non-denominational spiritual precepts to support participants' self-compassion, personal accountability, and acceptance of that which cannot be changed.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services help families plan drug interventions in South Dakota. These structured, loving confrontations are designed to encourage the person abusing substances to get crucial treatment. An intervention specialist can facilitate the intervention, educate everyone involved about addiction, and guide the family and individual to appropriate treatment. This can provide a seamless transition into an inpatient rehab program.

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

To manage withdrawal symptoms from alcohol and drugs, it is important to seek 24-hour clinical care in South Dakota. Medical personnel can monitor your symptoms and provide appropriate support with clinical treatment, medications, and emotional support. This is much safer and more comfortable than at-home detox, where medical staff are not on-site to quickly respond if withdrawal symptoms become severe or life-threatening.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

The process of removing drugs and alcohol from your system while under the 24/7 supervision of a medical team. Abruptly quitting substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids can have uncomfortable - or even deadly - side effects. To ensure your safety and comfort, you are monitored by a team of doctors, nurses, and clinical experts who provide medications if needed to treat any potential symptoms of withdrawal.

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Hand holding medical sign icon Clinical Services

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

desert iconMotivational Interviewing

Motivational interviewing involves an exchange of information between the client and therapist. Communication is a two way street that allows the client to explore the possibility of making changes and lets the therapist provide empathy and support. The therapist also guides the conversation to instill language that encourages change.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

life-skills iconLife Skills

Relearning basic life skills is an essential part of recovery. These skills help you manage challenges without succumbing to relapse. They include skills for self care, relationships, finances, and decision making.
