Inpatient treatment is useful for individuals who are struggling with a long-term drug or alcohol addiction or who have repeatedly tried and failed in other drug addiction treatment programs. Inpatient treatment means living as a resident at a treatment center, allowing you to receive constant support and treatment designed to attend to your mental and physical addictions out of reach of temptation or triggering influences. Interaction is strictly confined to the staff and other patients, especially in the beginning and focus is on the behaviors and thought processes that brought you to drug addiction and what changes can be made to keep you from having to come back.
The Canyon is a drug and alcohol rehab center that offers inpatient rehab to individuals suffering from drug addiction and substance abuse problems. Our unique, personalized drug addiction treatment program allows patients to enjoy an holistic recovery from alcohol and drug addiction and go on to lead healthy, normal lives.
Inpatient treatment usually involves a 24/7 stay at a treatment center, which will have residential living quarters onsite as well as all of the other amenities including recreation and eating facilities. The purpose of inpatient treatment is to give you the chance to focus completely on your addiction and how to break the vicious cycle of drug addiction and abuse. Inpatient treatment usually lasts anywhere from one month to several months, and focuses on every aspect of your addiction—mental, physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual—as well as learning how to socialize in a healthy way and practical tools to help you avoid relapse when you return home. Inpatient treatment can also include family and group therapies, though outside interactions are kept to a minimum to help you focus on your own issues.
Inpatient treatment and drug rehab has a huge advantage over outpatient or short-term treatment: time. It offers patients the time they need to truly experience life without drugs. Where other treatments focus on drug detox or the physical addiction to the drug and then dump them back into society to figure out the rest alone, inpatient treatments give patients the chance to completely recover from their addiction and learn how to deal with the temptations and pressures of the outside world once they go back to their regular lives. Outpatient treatments or detox-only facilities may not work for people who suffer from long-term addictions, since they do not last long enough for the person to learn how to deal with the ups and downs of life without drugs.
If you have a strong addiction to a drug or have gone through multiple short-term treatment programs to no avail, then you are a prime candidate for inpatient drug rehab. If you haven't been using drugs for very long or your addiction is relatively mild, then you may prefer to try an outpatient detox or treatment first. If you feel that it doesn't offer enough structure or you still feel too tempted to try drugs during the treatment, you can always request to be admitted into an inpatient program. At The Canyon, we provide both inpatient and outpatient drug addiction treatment.
The Canyon's Healing Life Program helps you break your addictions to drugs and alcohol and begin healing by integrating a number of different well-established and relatively new therapies. By the end of your stay, you will have a better handle on who you are as a person and what you want from life as well as how to get it without turning to drugs and alcohol.
