About CODAC Behavioral Healthcare – East Bay
CODAC Behavioral Healthcare is the oldest non-profit outpatient substance abuse treatment center in Rhode Island. They have seven locations and also work with the Rhode Island Department of Corrections. Their East Providence location offers counseling, medication-assisted treatment, ear acupuncture and therapeutic massage.
At CODAC, they offer several medication options for their MAT. Methadone, suboxone, and naltrexone are available. Your provider and you will discuss the options and choose the right one for your needs. By law, counseling has to be paired with these medications. You’ll work with licensed mental health professionals in both private and group sessions to progress on your recovery.
The intensive outpatient program (IOP) at CODAC ranges from 4-6 weeks. It includes individual and group counseling sessions equalling at least 9 hours each week.
Their general outpatient program is similar to IOP except the number of treatment hours per week can be less. This route is ideal for those who are further along on their recovery and don’t need as much structure.
I like that CODAC focuses on the value of lifestyle benefits you’ll get from being free of substances. Your family member is encouraged to be part of your treatment and recovery journey.
Once you make contact with CODAC, you’ll be on a treatment track within 24-48 hours.
CODAC accepts Medicaid and Ritecare plus most commercial insurance plans including United Healthcare, Neighborhood Health Plans, Tufts and Blue Cross.

Levels of Care
Outpatient
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.
Medically Assisted Detox
Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.
Intensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

Treatment
Alcoholism
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug Addiction
During drug rehab in Rhode Island, you'll participate in a variety of therapeutic interventions designed to help you break free from addiction. Common methods include cognitive behavioral therapy, music and art therapy, 12-step support, and nutrition/exercise.
Mental Health and Substance Abuse
A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.
Opioid Addiction
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Clinical Services
Group 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.
