Different Types Of Addiction Treatment in Wabasha, MN.

As you can probably envision, not every addiction treatment in Wabasha is the same. In fact, each of the rehabs you encounter will have their own individual idea as to what constitutes excellent treatment.

In a similar way, the protocols used at a facility will mostly depend on the particular philosophy the program is founded upon. These categories, however, are not mutually exclusive. For instance, you may come across spiritually-based drug and alcohol rehab programs that also use evidence-based philosophies.

In most cases, you may find that each substance abuse treatment center will emphasize a single approach. This is how most of these facilities are classified. That said, the most common types of drug and alcohol rehab facilities include:

1. Evidence-Based Rehabs

Evidence-based or Proof-based drug and alcohol rehab programs tend to underpin their program on the research in substance abuse treatment. As such, they will provide care that is mostly focused on the mental and emotional as well as adjunctive treatments that are based on proven scientific research and is founded on what has been found to work for different types of addicts.

At these rehabs, the recovery therapies used tend to change on a regular basis depending on the actual results coming out from the most recent findings in the research and scientific work.

2. Religious-Based Facilities

Faith-based alcohol and drug rehab facilities, on the other hand, put their attention on the religious aspects of recovery. As a result, most of them lean on the twelve-step philosophies in combination with religious ritual - such as praying.

The fundamental belief in a majority of these centers is that sobriety comes from God. In the United States of America - a mostly Christian country - most spiritually-based facilities are Christian. However, there are other alcohol and drug rehab centers that focus on treating people from other faiths.

In most cases, you will find that these recovery facilities are funded by religious entity - as an example, the Salvation Army has treatment programs. That said, most spiritually-based centers also promote philosophies based on abstinence.

3. Twelve-step Based Centers

Most of these centers base their treatment protocols and offerings on the 12-step philosophies coupled with the literature provided by AA and its various branches.

As a result, most of these centers will require that you engage in group work, attend offsite and onsite meetings, and finding a sponsor. During this time, you will go through the steps that will empower you to deal with your issues from the twelve step perspective.

Some of the facilities in Wabasha that are based on the 12-steps of addiction recovery may also offer other treatment modalities - such as individual psychotherapy.

4. Medicine-Based Rehabs

Medicine-based rehabs view addiction and substance use disorders as conditions that should be fixed medically - in a similar was you would handle other diseases like diabetes.

Because of this, they will often prescribe the long term use of such meds as methadone or Suboxone for the management of addiction.

These kinds of alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs are, however, sometimes thought of as harm-reducing because they might pass on your addiction from one drug to another. For instance, the Suboxone may replace opioids and heroin.

However, there are medicines that a proven track record of deterring active drug and alcohol abuse. For instance, Antabuse makes and alcoholic sick when they drink. As a result, this treatment approach is productive at managing addiction and reducing harm.

5. Other Programs

Some drug and alcohol treatment programs are unique and not suited to any of the methods described here so far. These programs offer therapies that are not founded on any evidence-based treatment methods or protocols.

Instead, these centers state that their way of handling addiction issues is unique to them. But, they are open to doubt in the sense that 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 Rehabs

These are addiction treatment facilities that theorize that people 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 substance abuse treatment centers, instead, go with the belief that addicts might be able to lessen their consumption of addictive substances. Based on this belief, they claim that it's okay to take a glass or so of wine or beer during dinner and will teach the clients how to do this with success. While going through this, you may learn how to keep a lid on your addiction while still making allowances for some substance use.

Most harm-reduction drug and alcohol treatment programs are found apart from the reaches of common alcohol and drug rehabs. A good example would be a needle exchange program.

The idea behind these programs is that not every addicted person is prepared for or desires help. Therefore, they are intended for attempting 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 arising from drug abuse, although addicts continue to use as they did before the intervention.
