Drug and Alcohol Detox Programs and Treatment Centers in Port Orchard, Washington

During the detox phase of treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, people can cleanse their bodies of all harmful substances and all drugs. Detox helps lay the foundation for further treatment and gives people a fresh start to recovery.

There are several drug and alcohol detox programs and centers near Port Orchard, including The Recovery Village Ridgefield Detox Center. Some people also benefit from opting for a treatment program outside of their hometown, which allows them to remove themselves from their environment of active addiction as they begin treatment.

Port Orchard Residential Treatment Programs

While there aren’t residential treatment programs in Port Orchard currently, there are options nearby in other areas of Washington. For example, there are two residential treatment centers in or near Seattle. Also, a relatively short drive from Port Orchard is The Recovery Village Ridgefield, which offers residential treatment programs.

A residential treatment program is also called inpatient rehab. During a residential program, the person receiving addiction treatment checks into a facility, where they stay for some time. The length of time someone spends in a residential facility can vary because everyone’s treatment plans are unique.

When someone participates in a residential treatment program, there is complete support and supervision. The structure of an inpatient alcohol rehab or an inpatient drug addiction treatment program can help reduce chaos and create stability, which is important in the early days of treatment.

An inpatient rehab facility can be simple with few amenities, or it can be luxurious and resort-like. Regardless of the amenities, what’s most important when it comes to choosing a residential facility is that it provides high-quality, evidence-based treatment on an individualized level.

Port Orchard Partial Hospitalization Programs

While there aren’t Port Orchard partial hospitalization programs at the moment, there are options nearby, including the program offered by The Recovery Village Ridgefield.

A partial hospitalization program, or PHP, is an option for someone who requires intensive treatment and perhaps psychiatric care and medication management. Someone in a PHP will attend treatment all day for a set amount of time and then, depending on the center, will either reside on-site or return home at the end of the day. Some people participating in these programs may live in a sober living house during this time.

Some PHPs do have participants live onsite, however, but they may be in a lower level of care during this time than they were in a residential treatment program.

Port Orchard Outpatient Treatment Programs

Outpatient drug treatment programs offer a less intensive option either for a patient who has already completed a higher level of treatment, or someone who may have a less severe substance use disorder.

While there aren’t Port Orchard outpatient treatment programs currently, there is one outpatient detox program in nearby Seattle. There are also 11 other outpatient treatment programs in or near Seattle. The Recovery Village also offers outpatient treatment programs at The Recovery Village Ridgefield.

Someone participating in an outpatient treatment program can often continue their daily life and commute to a treatment center several times per week for daytime treatment. If someone participates in an intensive outpatient program (IOP), they will usually go to the treatment center several times a week, or they may live on site, in some cases.

Sober Living and Rehab Aftercare Programs in Port Orchard, WA

Drug rehab aftercare programs may be as simple as participation in a support group or ongoing individualized therapy. Many people also choose to participate in rehab alumni programs to stay connected to a support system.

Currently, there are 24 programs in the Seattle area that offer aftercare or continuing care as part of their substance abuse treatment programs. The Recovery Village Ridgefield also offers aftercare programs through their facility.

Someone’s treatment journey can be much longer than inpatient or outpatient rehab. As part of a full, individualized treatment plan, there should be considerations for aftercare as well. Also called continuing care, aftercare planning can include follow-up appointments with doctors and counselors and also offer recommendations for living options. For example, someone may move into a sober living house or aftercare facilities after completing inpatient rehab.

Sober living homes can allow someone to transition back to daily life while still maintaining a sense of support and accountability.

What Is the Process Like in a Drug Detox and Rehab Facility?

Many people feel apprehensive about receiving treatment for drug or alcohol addiction because they’re unsure of what to expect. While there are different levels of care and everyone’s treatment journey is unique, there are some overall factors that remain the same among most rehab programs.

Many people will begin rehab with medical detox, which allows them to safely go through withdrawal. Even before that, however, people will meet with staff who work at the treatment center. They will learn more about each client’s personal and medical history to create a personalized treatment plan. Clients will undergo a physical and mental health evaluation, and if necessary, their treatment plan may include medication.

After detox care, a person will likely transition to residential care, then a PHP or IOP, and then they may go to outpatient, if necessary. Each client usually leaves rehab with a well-rounded aftercare plan to assist them in their next steps in recovery.

Finding the Best Rehab Program for You

There are many factors to consider as you explore how to find the best rehab center. What might work well for one person in terms of the best drug rehab centers won’t necessarily work for everyone.

When you’re narrowing down your options for treatment, consider centers that:

  • Are accredited
  • Have good online reviews
  • Work with your health insurance
  • Have full-time medical staff
  • Offer a variety of programs
  • Offer counseling for co-occurring mental health conditions

What Questions Should You Ask When Considering a Treatment Program?

The following are a few of the questions to ask when you’re exploring different treatment facilities.

What Is the Basis of the Treatment Programs?

Addiction treatment programs might vary at least slightly in terms of how treatment is approached. For example, at The Recovery Village Ridgefield, substance use disorders are treated as a medical disorder. Treatment can include cognitive behavioral therapy, recreational therapy, 12-step programs and a variety of other unique approaches combined into one program for the best possible outcomes.

What Is the Admissions Process Like?

Determine what admissions might look like at the centers you’re considering. At The Recovery Village, the first step in the admissions process is usually a phone conversation with either the person who will receive treatment or their loved one. These calls are confidential and can help decide whether our treatment program is right for you.

Is Insurance Accepted?

Private insurance will often cover some or all of the costs of addiction treatment. Under the Affordable Care Act, insurers on the exchanges are required to provide coverage that’s similar to what’s provided for physical health conditions. Most facilities can contact your insurance company to determine the coverage available to you and what you might need to pay out-of-pocket.

If you don’t have insurance or your insurance won’t cover the costs of addiction treatment, some facilities also work with you to create payment plans that will work for your needs.

What Services Are Offered?

The level of care and services you need are dependent on your addiction, and your mental and physical health. Specific services you might look for as you compare addiction treatment centers include whether medical detox is available and the types of inpatient programs, as well as what levels of aftercare and continuing care are provided.
