Finding Help in Anniston

Anniston, Alabama Drug & Alcohol Rehab Centers

The problem of drug and alcohol addiction has reached the entire state of Alabama. Substance use disorder doesn’t discriminate. Those who are addicted harmful substances come from all races, ages, genders and nationalities. Anniston citizens who want to break free from their addictions can find several kinds of treatment options available in the area. It can be overwhelming to sort through all of the options to determine the best treatment program for you. The following treatment programs are available.

Residential Treatment Programs

In a residential (also called retreat-based or inpatient) treatment program, patients stay in the facility and have round-the-clock access to medical supervision from healthcare professionals and addiction specialists. In this program, patients will have therapy, classes and other healing activities.

Partial Hospitalization Programs

In a partial hospitalization program (PHP), patients are in the facility during the day for 6 – 8 hours a day, and then they go home in the evenings, assuming that they have a safe and stable environment in which to live or the facility provides housing. In this program, patients will have therapy, classes and other healing activities as well.

Outpatient Treatment Programs

In an outpatient treatment program, patients are in the facility throughout the week for 10 to 15 hours and then they stay at home the rest of the time assuming they have a safe and stable environment in which to live or the facility provides housing. In this program, patients will have therapy, courses and other healing activities just like residential and PHP patients.

When seeking treatment for a substance use disorder, there are a lot of different options for local facilities. It might be wise to find a national treatment center. At a National facility, there are experienced addiction specialists that will assess your situation and determine which treatment program is going to be the most effective for you.

Detox Centers

Detoxification can be a vital step on the recovery journey if you are coming off certain substances like benzodiazepines or opioids. You may need medical assistance when you are going through this process. Medical supervision can keep you comfortable so that the detox process is not painful or dangerous. Detox centers are a great place to get medical assistance with this process.

While a detox center might be helpful, it is much better to find a facility that will enroll you in a treatment program after you detox. Going to a detox center that does not offer treatment programs will only address the physical component of your addiction and not the psychological or mental components.
