Drug and alcohol treatment services are available in a diverse range of formats, so there is truly something for everyone in Ulster. Treatment services can be offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis, where outpatient treatment services range from 1 or 2 days of treatment per week to intensive outpatient treatment services which is delivered daily. Outpatient treatment services range from individual counseling and group counseling, to more advanced psychotherapies to modify behavior and motivate clients to stay sober.
Inpatient and residential rehabilitation is offered to people who suffer with more substantial histories of substance abuse, ranging from 30 - 90 day programs. Some programs have what is called a Therapeutic Community model, where participants may stay as long as a year in certain situations. The longer the person is involved in rehab and benefits from services and a distraction-free environment, the greater their chances of staying clean and being able to do so without requiring such a comprehensive system of recovery and support. Services at an inpatient or residential drug and alcohol treatment facility are usually more diversified and can encompass recovery services for addiction but also include services for co-occurring mental health disorders. Aftercare services are key even following long-term treatment, and many centers recommend ongoing engagement in the program for some months until the person has progressed into a drug free lifestyle.
