Outpatient Rehab Program

The first step in any recovery program is to remove drugs and alcohol from your life. However, the real work begins after the addictive substances are removed from your body.

One of the best things a recovering person can do to ensure continued success is to enter a long term treatment program. An outpatient rehab program is just one of the many options within a treatment center’s continuum of care.

Why Enter An Outpatient Rehab Program?

Outpatient rehab programs are designed to work around your needs. Outpatient works best for those who have abused a substance for a short period of time or in smaller amounts. People struggling with an ongoing or persistent addiction, or moderate to severe substance use disorder, are advised to seek a higher level of care. The specific substance of your addiction and the intensity of your withdrawal symptoms will determine the necessity for medical detox and the length of that detox.

Once you’re stable enough to join an outpatient rehab program, you should look for one that will best suit your recovery. Some questions to consider when choosing an outpatient treatment program are:

  • What kind of results am I looking for?
  • Does this outpatient program work around my schedule?
  • How long is the rehab program?
  • Do they use medications as part of treatment?
  • What kinds of therapies are offered?
  • What accreditations does the facility hold?
  • What do their reviews look like?
  • Do they offer a continuum of care beyond outpatient?
  • Do they advertise a success rate? What is it?

Once you have researched the outpatient rehab programs in consideration, contact the facilities through their admissions department over the phone or through an online live chat option if provided.

Is an Outpatient Rehab Program Right For Me?

Outpatient treatment is not always the best choice for everyone. Before considering outpatient rehab it is important to have a stable home life, a quality sober support system, and an established routine. 

Outpatient treatment may not be the best option for you if:

  • You have overwhelming urges to drink or use drugs.
  • You don’t do well following a schedule or keeping commitments.
  • Your addiction has consumed your life.

If you continue to have strong urges or persistent thoughts of using or drinking, a residential inpatient program is a better fit for you. Similarly, outpatient therapy doesn’t work if you don’t show up. Even then, you must be motivated and participate to reap the full benefits.

Not everyone has suffered extreme consequences from their addiction. Outpatient is best suited for those who still hold strong relationships with support and ties to a community. Conversely, those who are drowning in their own destruction should take a more intensive form of treatment, such as an inpatient rehab program.
