Everyone here is so nice! Way more professional and faster than the previous hospitals I attended. They waited for me to grow strong enough for each step of the treatment. They continue to give me the same great service up to this day. Nurses and therapists are easy to talk ...
About Gila River Healthcare
Gila River Healthcare, in Sacaton, Arizona, offers mental health and addiction recovery services for youth and adults, including specialized programs for children, adolescents, young adults, and persons with co-occurring disorders. They provide 12-Step-focused, culturally responsive services, including medication-assisted treatment (MAT), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), general outpatient program (OP), and aftercare programs.
Clients in alcohol and/or opioid recovery may enroll in their evidence-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT) program for longer-term pharmacotherapy, including buprenorphine induction and maintenance, to reduce cravings and decrease relapse risk.
Their intensive outpatient program (IOP) is designed for clients who require high-level supervision and support, including those in early recovery, stepping down from inpatient care, or at an elevated risk of relapse. Clients receive medical and mental health assessments and personalized care plans. The program requires up to 20 hours of therapy per week for a minimum of 80 days and includes robust individual, group, and family counseling and recovery-focused life-skills training. Referrals for acute and subacute inpatient care are available as needed.
Their general outpatient program is designed for clients who are medically stable. Treatment includes continuing addiction counseling and recovery education. Clients participate in three therapeutic sessions weekly based on the Matrix model of care.
Their aftercare programs enable a complete continuum of care aligned with clients’ evolving needs and include one therapeutic session per week.
Gila River Healthcare is accredited by The Joint Commission.
Gila River Healthcare accepts IHS benefits and works with most major insurance providers, such as Aetna, Cigna, and BlueCross BlueShield. Contact your provider to verify coverage, because out of network benefits can vary.

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
Drug rehab in Arizona is the process of treating individuals who are dependent on a particular addictive drug. Because addiction is complex, this treatment typically includes a variety of interventions that address the many physical and emotional issues involved.
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.
Substance Abuse
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
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.
Trauma 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.
