Outpatient

Outpatient programs 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. The River Centre Clinic provides outpatient services to adults and adolescents with eating disorder symptoms that do not require a higher level of care. Outpatient therapy is an integral part of the transition from higher levels of care at the River Centre Clinic (Partial Hospitalization and Adolescent Residential). After completing these more intensive programs, patients can transition to outpatient therapy as part of their discharge plan. The Outpatient Program is certified by the Ohio Department of Mental Health and includes a multidisciplinary staff of therapists including physician consultants, licensed psychologists, psychology fellows, and licensed independent social workers.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient programs 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. The River Centre Clinic’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is 4 hours a day, 3-5 days a week, specifically designed for people with Binge Eating Disorder (BED). It includes the opportunity for low cost or free independent living (depending on the space availability) so that people from outside of our local community have the opportunity to receive the specialized care that they need. BED is characterized by eating abnormal amounts of food while feeling unable to stop and is sometimes referred to as “compulsive overeating.” Although BED can occur in those who are normal weight, as the cycle of binge eating cycle progresses, it often leads to unwanted weight gain and obesity which can indirectly fuel further compulsive overeating. This eating pattern is usually intertwined with a turbulent emotional mixture of shame, guilt, depression and anxiety. These negative feelings often lead the person struggling with BED to continue to use food to cope, creating a vicious cycle. There is evidence that individuals with BED display rates of emotional distress, impaired quality of life and medical problems that are similar to other eating disorder diagnoses. Individuals with BED respond well to psychological and nutritional rehabilitation treatment designed specifically to address this eating disorder.

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. The Adolescent Residential Program (ARP) at River Centre Clinic provides female and male adolescents who have serious eating disorders with a higher level of structure and support than is possible during outpatient treatment. Most ARP patients live in the Adolescent Residence on the second floor of the main treatment facility, where they are monitored by staff members 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. ARP patients who live in the local area usually commute to River Centre Clinic and stay for 7 to 12 hours each day. The program has capacity for 8 to 12 patients, including both residents and local commuters. River Centre Clinic is certified as a mental health agency and is licensed to operate a residential facility by the Ohio Department of Mental Health.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn’t spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community  programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Aftercare and follow-up are critical aspects of treatment since the initial phase of treatment rarely is sufficient for total recovery. The facility takes aftercare very seriously and work closely with home treatment team to develop a plan that assures continued progress after discharge.

Partial Hospitalization Program

Designed for individuals with moderate to severe addictions, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides a more intensive form of outpatient therapy. PHP treatment can serve as an alternative to inpatient hospitalization or as a step-down option after being discharged from a hospital or residential program. A partial hospitalization program typically requires a minimum of 20 hours weekly for an average of 90 days. Depending on your care plan, PHPs can include relapse prevention, medication management, and behavioral therapy services.
