Discontinuing the use of substances may come with uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms. This can make it more challenging to stop using drugs and alcohol. The goal of a detoxification or detox program is to help you get sober safely and with less discomfort. We offer outpatient detoxification programs for clients who experience less severe withdrawal symptoms and do not require inpatient detox. In our outpatient detox programs, you’ll work closely with medical and mental health staff for therapy and, if applicable, medication management. While it’s not required, some people enter detox prior to another program. For example, before attending PHP. We have medication-assisted treatment (MAT) as an option for those who need it. 

If you are on a substance that requires tapering, we can guide you through the process. This is common and often necessary for those who use substances that can cause dangerous symptoms if discontinued abruptly.

Partial hospitalization programs (PHP) are the most intensive level of care you can get without being in an inpatient program. On a typical day in PHP at Prevail Recovery Center, you will spend most of the day at your treatment facility but return home at night to sleep. Since clients attend PHP for the majority of the day, most days of the week, the time commitment mirrors that of a full-time job. Accordingly, clients should plan to take time off of work while they’re in PHP. Our partial hospitalization programs involve a combination of different therapies and treatments, including but not limited to regular groups and individual therapy sessions. 

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) are one step below PHP in intensity. Our IOP clients engage in a combination of group and individual therapy, just like those in PHP. The difference is that you’ll be in treatment for fewer hours each week in IOP. IOP can be ideal for those who need a comprehensive addiction treatment team but cannot commit to PHP. For example, those who are employed, need to take care of their family, or plan to attend college while in addiction treatment.

Other outpatient options offered at Prevail Recovery Center require an even lower time commitment than IOP. Many clients choose to enter some form of continued outpatient after PHP or IOP so they can keep pursuing therapy and other treatments, have regular check-ins with staff, and get support from their community as they experience or transition back into their daily lives.
