Different Types Of Rehabilitation in California City, CA.

As you can envision, not every alcohol and drug rehab in California City is the same. As a matter of fact, each of the programs you encounter will have their own unique idea as to what constitutes excellent treatment.

In the same way, the techniques applied at a facility will mostly depend on the particular philosophy the program is founded upon. These protocols, however, are not mutually exclusive. For example, you may come across faith-based alcohol and drug rehabs that also use evidence-based philosophies.

In most situations, you will find that each alcohol and drug rehab program emphasizes a specific philosophy. This is how most of these rehabs are classified. With that being said, the most common types of substance abuse treatment centers include:

1. Evidence-Based Rehabs

Evidence-based addiction treatment facilities tend to underpin their treatment on the science of substance abuse recovery. And because of this, they will provide care that is mostly focused on the mental and emotional in addition to adjunctive treatments 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 results coming out from the most recent results in the research and scientific work.

2. Spirtually-Based Programs

Religious-based drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs, however, put their attention on the religious facets of recovery. As a result, most of them rely on the twelve step programs combined with religious practice - such as prayers and meditation.

The fundamental thought in a majority of these centers is that sobriety comes from the Lord. In the USA - a mostly Christian region - most spiritually-based programs are Christian. On the other hand, there are also addiction treatment programs that focus on treating people from other faiths.

For the most case, you will find that these type of treatment facilities are funded by religious group - with the recovery programs run by the Salvation Army providing an excellent example. With that said, most religious-based centers also provide philosophies based on abstinence.

3. Twelve-step Based Programs

Most of these rehabs base their treatment protocols and options on the 12-step philosophies in addition to the literature produced by Alcoholics Anonymous and its various offshoots.

As a result, most all of these facilities will require that you participate in meetings, group work, and regular meetings with your sponsor. During these activities, you will regularly work on the steps that will enable you to handle your issues from the 12-step point of view.

Some of the rehabs in California City that are based on the twelve-steps of addiction recovery may also involve other recovery options - such as individual psychotherapy.

4. Pharmacotherapy-Based Rehabs

Pharmacotherapy-based rehabs look at substance abuse disorders as conditions that should be handled medically - in much the same way you would deal with other conditions like cancer.

Because of this, they often write a prescription for such medicines as methadone or Suboxone for the management of addiction.

These kinds of addiction treatment centers are, however, sometimes thought of as harm-reducing because they can transfer your addiction from one drug to another. For example, the methadone may take the place of heroin and opoids.

But, there are meds that have been proven of deterring active substance abuse. As an example, Antabuse makes an alcohol abuser ill when they consume alcohol. As a result, this type of medicine is productive at managing addiction and reducing harm.

5. Other Programs

Some substance abuse treatment centers are unique and not suited to any of the methods described here so far. These programs offer cures that are not proven and may be experimental.

Alternatively, these programs suggest that they have worked out unique ways of dealing with addiction and substance use disorders. But, they are problematic in the sense that they might not have proof of success or any other evidence to back up the claims they make.

6. Harm-Reduction Based Facilities

These are drug and alcohol rehabs 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 alcohol and drug rehabs, instead, go with the belief that addicts can use less of the substance in question. From this perspective, they claim that it's okay to have 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 will learn how to keep a lid on your substance abuse problem while still allowing for some substance use.

Many harm-reduction drug and alcohol rehab centers are found away from the reaches of common alcohol and drug treatment facilities. A good example is a needle exchange program.

The theory behind these programs is that not every addicted person is prepared for or wants guidance. Therefore, they are intended for 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. In doing so, these programs reduce the risk of disease transmittal which arises from drug abuse, even though addicts continue to use as they did prior to the intervention.
