Inpatient

Residential Inpatient Treatment provides long-term care and recovery in a safe setting. You will stay at a Residential drug rehab for the entirety of your treatment which generally lasts around 90 days. While inpatient treatment is a longer commitment and typically more expensive form of of treatment, it is by far the best type of rehab to attend and will offer you the highest chances of getting clean and staying sober. An inpatient drug rehab has an average cost of around $40,000. Cost can vary depending on length of stay, quality of care, and location.

Outpatient

Outpatient treatment is unique because it allows you to attend therapy groups or treatment counseling during the day and then return home once completed. This can be beneficial if you have certain aspects of your life you must attend to while seeking help for alcoholism or drug addiction. While the freedom of outpatient treatment is appealing to many individuals, it also can be difficult to dedicate the focus that is required to overcome addiction. A good support group of friends or family around you that will keep you in line when not in therapy can greatly increase the success of this type of treatment. Outpatient treatment can cost around $3,000.00 on average.

Detox

First off, detox is not rehab. Many people think detox is the same as treatment, but this not true. Going to a detox is the initial step most people do before going into rehab. When coming off drugs or alcohol, most people experience withdrawal symptoms that are extremely uncomfortable or dangerous. Going to detox helps you get through these withdrawals safely, while minimizing the effects that generally occur. Detox can last anywhere from 5 days to 3 weeks depending on what substances you were using. The cost will vary depending on how long you are in detox and whether it was a medical detox or drug-free.

Free/Low Cost

Financial Concerns are one of the main reasons people do not enter an alcohol and drug rehab. Many people think there is no way they can afford effective treatment because they are unable to pay for it. However, there are rehabs that will accept medicaid or offer payment assistance to help you with treatment costs. You may also look for treatment facilities that offer a sliding scale fee that adjust the cost of rehab based on your income. While these options may not be the number one choice for many, they are still more helpful than doing nothing. Getting help is always the best choice.

Counseling

Counseling or therapy is usually part of any treatment program you attend. However, many places offer counseling or therapy outside of treatment as a way to help you with any problems that can occur in everyday life that could cause you to relapse. They are offered in multiple formats such as group or individual therapy as well as family counseling. Counseling and therapy are an excellent form of aftercare planning as well.

12-Step

12-Step meetings are support groups and can be helpful for many people as a supplement to treatment. 12-step follows the specific guidelines that were outlined and originated from Alcoholics Anonymous. For some people, this is the only type of treatment they receive and for a few, it is successful. 12-Step works much better as a continued aftercare plan once you have completed treatment.

Aftercare

Most people don't even consider what to do once they complete an alcohol and drug rehab program. Setting up proper aftercare planning and learning relapse prevention techniques is important to maintaining a healthy and drug-free lifestyle. Many treatment centers will offer some type of aftercare plan for when you leave, but there are places that specialize in aftercare and relapse prevention if you need additional assistance. Aftercare can also include transitional or halfway housing if you need a place to live after you finish drug and alcohol treatment.

Common Questions About Treatment

Does Outpatient Treatment Work?

If you are addicted to certain intoxicating substances - like alcohol, benzodiazepines, and opioids - you may find that outpatient rehabilitation might not be the best solution for you. This is also true if you have developed a longstanding or severe substance use disorder. In all these cases, you would typically have higher success rates checking into an inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation program in Sanford.

However, if you have a relatively new or mild substance use disorder, then you might find that outpatient addiction treatment would help you overcome this issue. This form of treatment might also be ideal if you have responsibilities at school, work, and home that prevent you from going to inpatient treatment.

Outpatient rehab programs might provide you with greater freedom than an inpatient rehab program and could be right place to start.


Do Meetings Like AA or 12-Step Help?

Many research studies have shown that meetings like AA, NA, and other 12 step groups may be helpful when trying to maintain sobriety and overcome your addiction and keep up with the lessons that you learned during your addiction treatment and rehabilitation program. It is for this reason that many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Sanford will encourage you to start and continue attending these meetings.

Attending meetings as a first timer as well as during your long term recovery plan could provide you with the support that you need to maintain your sobriety.


Can I Take My Children To Rehab With Me?

If you're a parent who is also struggling with an addiction and/or mental health disorders, you might worry about leaving your family behind so that you can check into an alcohol and drug rehab program.

Today, there are many drug and alcohol rehab programs in Sanford that will ensure that you can bring your children into rehab with you, so you don't have to choose.

These rehabilitation programs will provide you with a supportive place where you can overcome your addiction and continue learning new life skills. They will also have full-time childcare so that you can focus on your recovery and still be near your children.
