Different Types Of Treatment in Dodd City, TX.

As you can probably imagine, not every addiction treatment in Dodd City is the same. As a matter of fact, each of the centers you encounter will have its own unique idea as to what excellent treatment is all about.

Similarly, the protocols applied at a rehab will mostly depend on the individual philosophy the center is founded upon. These protocols, however, can be combined in various ways. As an example, you may notice spiritually-based alcohol and drug treatment programs that also use evidence-based philosophies.

In many situations, you will find that each alcohol and drug rehab center emphasizes a single philosophy. This is how most of these programs are classified. With that being said, the most common types of drug and alcohol rehab centers include:

1. Evidence-Based Facilities

Evidence-based drug and alcohol treatment programs usually underpin their program on the science and research of substance abuse recovery. And because of this, they will extend treatment that is mostly psychologically-based as well as adjunctive protocols that are research and scientifically based from proven results and case studies.

At these facilities, the recovery therapies used tend to change on a regular basis depending on the actual results from the latest results in science and research.

2. Spirtually-Based Centers

Religious-based drug and alcohol rehab programs, on the other hand, are focused on the religious and spiritual facets of treatment. As a result, most of them rely on the 12-step programs combined with religious practice and ritual - such as praying.

The underlying thought in most of these centers is that recovery comes from the Lord. In the United States of America - a largely Christian country - most faith-based facilities are Christian. On the other hand, there are some drug and alcohol treatment programs that focus on offering treatment to addicts from other religions.

In many instances, you will find that these recovery programs are paid for by religious entity - with the recovery programs run by the Salvation Army providing an excellent example. That said, most faith-based rehabs also provide philosophies based on abstinence.

3. 12-step Based Rehabs

Most of these rehabs base their recovery therapies and options on the 12-step philosophies coupled with the literature provided by Alcoholics Anonymous and its various branches.

To this end, most of these programs will require that you engage in group work, attend offsite and onsite meetings, and finding a sponsor. During these activities, you will go through the steps that will enable you to look at your addiction from the 12-step point of view.

Some of the programs in Dodd City that are based on the 12-steps of addiction recovery may also use other recovery protocols - such as complementary therapeutic practices and one-on-one psychotherapy.

4. Medicine-Based Rehabs

Pharmacotherapy-based programs view addiction and substance use issues as conditions that should be fixed medically - in a similar was you would handle other diseases like high blood pressure.

As a result, they will often write a prescription for such meds as methadone or Suboxone to manage an addiction.

These types of addiction treatment facilities are, however, sometimes thought of as harm reducing because they might transfer your addiction from one substance to another. For example, the Suboxone might replace opioids and heroin.

But, there are medications that have been proven of deterring active drug abuse. As an example, Antabuse makes an alcohol abuser ill when they consume alcohol. Because of this, such a type of treatment is effective at managing addiction and reducing harm.

5. Other Programs

Some drug and alcohol rehab centers do not fit into any of the categories we have discussed above. These programs offer cures that are not proven and may be experimental.

Alternatively, these facilities report that they have worked out unique ways of dealing with addiction and substance use disorders. But, they are open to doubt because they might not be able to provide you with proof of success or any other evidence to back up the claims they make.

6. Harm-Reduction Based Programs

These are alcohol and drug treatment programs that generally believe that individuals suffering from addiction and a variety of substance use disorders are not completely capable of abstinence or that they do not want to stop using drugs and alcohol entirely.

These alcohol and drug rehab facilities, instead, work on the belief that addicts might be able to lessen their consumption of addictive substances. Based on this belief, they argue that it's okay to have a glass or so of wine or beer during dinner and will teach the patients how to do this with success. In the process, you may learn how to keep a lid on your substance abuse problem while still allowing for some substance use.

Most harm-reduction alcohol and drug rehab centers are found outside the reaches of common drug and alcohol rehab centers. One good example is a needle exchange program.

The idea behind these programs is that not every addicted person is ready for or desires help. Therefore, they are directed at trying to stop the spread of life-threatening diseases such as hepatitis and HIV by providing IV drug users with clean needles free of charge. By so doing, they reduce the risk of disease transmittal that occurs from drug abuse, even though addicts continue to use as they did prior to the intervention.
