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.
Intensive Outpatient
Clients undergoing treatment in an intensive outpatient program (IOP) typically are those who are leaving inpatient rehab or who have elected to forgo residential care following detox. Clients engage in at least nine hours of treatment weekly, on average, but may receive up to 20 hours of care, with the frequency and intensity of treatment decreasing as clients stabilize. Intensive outpatient treatment often combines psychotherapy, recovery education, holistic care, and medication assisted treatment (MAT).
Aftercare
Rehab aftercare programs serve clients who are medically stable and well advanced in their recovery journey, having already completed detox and/or intensive inpatient treatment. Drug rehab aftercare is designed to support clients in maintaining their sobriety as they return to their home, workplace, and community. Case managers and care teams play a pivotal role in designing a long-term care plan that meets clients' unique recovery needs and goals. Relapse prevention and peer coaching are common.
Intervention Services
Services offered by drug intervention programs often include specialists to assist with a drug intervention in Wyoming. Drug interventions are designed to encourage individuals who are struggling with addiction to get the treatment necessary for recovery. Friends and family can partner with intervention services to host an intervention and suggest a solid treatment plan to the individual. These services can also provide follow-up care for both the individual and family members.
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.
