Different Types Of Treatment in Clive, IA.

As you can envision, not every addiction treatment in Clive is the same. In fact, each of the centers you encounter will have their own individual notion as to what excellent treatment is all about.

In a similar way, the techniques used at a facility will mostly depend on the original philosophy the facility is founded upon. These categories, however, are not mutually exclusive. For example, you may see religious-based drug and alcohol rehab facilities that also use evidence-based therapies.

In many cases, you will find that every alcohol and drug treatment program emphasizes a single philosophy. This is how most of these centers are classified. That said, the most common types of substance abuse treatment facilities include:

1. Evidence-Based Facilities

Evidence-based drug and alcohol treatment programs usually base their program on the science and research of substance abuse recovery. As such, they will provide treatment that is mostly focused on the mental and emotional in addition to ancillary therapies that are based on proven scientific research and is founded on what has been found to work for different types of addicts.

At these programs, the treatment protocols used tend to change on a regular basis contingent upon the results from the latest findings in science and research.

2. Religious-Based Centers

Faith-based alcohol and drug rehabs, however, put their attention on the religious facets of treatment. As a result, most of them rely on the twelve-step programs combined with religious ritual - such as prayers.

The underlying belief in most of these centers is that recovery comes from the Lord. In the United States - a chiefly Christian region - most faith-based centers are Christian. But, there are also addiction treatment programs that focus on treating people from other religions.

For the most case, you will find that these type of treatment facilities are paid for by a specific religious entity - as an example, the Salvation Army has treatment programs. That said, most faith-based programs also provide philosophies based on abstinence.

3. 12-step Based Facilities

Most of these rehabs base their treatment therapies and options on the 12-step programs in addition to the information provided by AA and its various branches.

As a result, most of these rehabs make you engage in meetings, group work, and regular meetings with your sponsor. During these activities, you will go through the steps that will enable you to look at your issues from the twelve step point of view.

Some of the centers in Clive that are based on the twelve-steps of addiction recovery may also involve other treatment protocols - such as individual psychotherapy.

4. Medicine-Based Centers

Pharmacotherapy-based facilities look at addiction issues as conditions that should be fixed medically - in a similar was you would handle other conditions such as diabetes.

As a result, they will often prescribe the long term use of such drugs as Suboxone and methadone to manage an addiction.

These kinds of substance abuse treatment facilities are, however, sometimes classified as harm-reducing because they can pass on your addiction from one substance to a different drug. As an example, the methadone may take the place of heroin.

On the other hand, there are medications that a proven track record of deterring active alcohol abuse. For instance, Antabuse will make an alcoholic ill whenever they take alcohol. Because of this, this type of treatment is useful at managing addiction and reducing harm.

5. Other Programs

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

Instead, these programs state that their way of handling addiction issues is unique to them. But, they are questionable because they will probably 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 programs that hold the belief 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 substance abuse treatment centers, instead, work on the belief that addicted individuals can consume less of the drugs or alcohol. From this perspective, they claim that it's alright to have a glass of wine or so during lunch or dinner and will teach the clients how to do this with success. In the process, you will learn how to control your substance abuse problem while still making allowances for some substance use.

Many harm-reduction addiction treatment centers are found outside the reaches of traditional alcohol and drug rehab facilities. A good example would be a needle exchange program.

The idea behind these plans is that not every addicted person is prepared for or desires help. Hence, 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. In doing so, these programs reduce the risk of disease transmission arising from drug abuse, even though addicts continue to use as they did prior to the intervention.
