St Peter’s Addiction Recovery

Saint Peter’s Addiction Recovery Center is in Albany, New York, and is part of the St. Peter’s Health Partners network. They have medical detox, inpatient, and outpatient programs for adolescents and adults who have substance abuse and alcohol issues. There’s also a special track if you’re under a court order.

The medical detox program helps reduce withdrawal symptoms and helps ensure your detox is safe and as comfortable as possible. You’ll also get counseling and treatment planning to prepare you for the next steps in treatment.

For those struggling with opioid or alcohol use, medication assisted treatment can help you stay stable during treatment and reduce the chances of relapse. You’ll get outpatient or inpatient treatment to help you create a strong foundation for recovery.

The inpatient program has a traditional approach of counseling on an individual and group basis. You’ll enroll in a 12 Step program, take classes, and continue your medication management. You’ll learn life skills as part of the discharge process so you can recover at home and in your community while attending an outpatient program.

Adult men may be eligible for an extended stay at their community shelter. This program lasts 4-6 months. They’ll be given food stamps, additional oversight, and job training. The goal is to assist their development to reach independent living.

The program for teens is an outpatient program that includes a case management team. They help teens ages 13-18 with counseling, family therapy, and social services. That way, they’ll recover while addressing any underlying factors and stress that may have led to their addictions.

Outpatient

Outpatient rehabs offer an intermediate level of care for clients who do not require the kind of intensive supervision and support an inpatient program typically provides. Many clients transition into outpatient care immediately after exiting inpatient treatment. Others enter outpatient programs upon completing detox. Some facilities offer ambulatory medical detox for clients who do not require hospitalization. Most outpatient rehabs offer a combination of services, including addiction counseling, life skills training, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Aftercare

Clients in rehab aftercare programs receive a customized portfolio of services designed to promote their sustained sobriety. These clients have completed high-level treatment, are typically exiting detox and/or intensive inpatient care and are reintegrating into their home, workplace, and community. Rehab aftercare services address addiction disease as a chronic condition requiring continuing care. Clients typically work with case managers and recovery teams to access necessary resources, such as peer coaching and 12 step program induction support.

12-Step

Participants in 12 step programs maintain access to community-based peer support, which is the programs' primary treatment modality. 12 step recovery combines personal growth with paper coaching. Participants regularly attend group meetings, which are free, anonymous, open to the public, and available multiple times per day in most communities. They are also mentored by self-selected sponsors who guide them through the steps of recovery. Age and gender specific and other specialized formats are common.

Intervention Services

A drug intervention in New York occurs when family members and friends lovingly confront someone with a substance use disorder. The goal of this confrontation is to motivate the person to seek treatment. Loved ones point out how the person's destructive behavior is affecting them in hopes that they will agree to get help. Most inpatient rehab facilities offer intervention services that can help families walk through this process step by step.

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.
