Inpatient drug rehab, also known as residential drug rehab, is a treatment method for individuals that need to get out of their environment and a more aggressive intervention while in treatment. Inpatient treatment in St. Thomas commonly lasts anywhere from 1 month to 3 - 6 months or longer, and some facilities provide both short and long term rehabilitation options. Some inpatient programs are prepared to provide both non-medical and medically assisted detox services, however some only accept clients who have been detoxed at a detoxification program prior to arrival.
Within an inpatient drug rehab, it is much like a small community of staff and clients who are functioning together through the process of rehabilitation. Rehab staff will do a thorough assessment of the individual's needs, and a rehabilitation plan is put forth that will consist of counseling, therapy, holistic treatment, psychotherapy, etc. all depending on what rehabilitation approach the program is employing. Some inpatient facilities implement the 12 steps, while others apply a therapeutic behavioral method, which may incorporate more advanced therapies and psychotherapies.
Inpatient drug rehab also reduces many of the risks associated with relapse, since the individual is under constant supervision in a clean and sober setting, and won't be tempted by any of the friends or drug dealers who motivated, encouraged or empowered their drug abuse.
