Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

car-building iconOutpatient

Outpatient rehabs specialize in providing comprehensive care for clients who choose to remain in their homes and communities during treatment. Their services may include transitional support for clients stepping down from intensive inpatient programming. Ambulatory medical detox may be provided for clients at low risk for withdrawal complications. Many programs include evening, night, and weekend services to accommodate clients who are working professionals or caregivers. Addiction counseling and life skills training are common treatment modalities.

clipboard-medical iconMedically Assisted Detox

After long-term substance abuse, the body can develop a chemical dependency on toxic substances. Sudden removals or detox, of these substances from the body can cause discomfort. Detoxification at a Pyramid Healthcare facility includes 24-hour nursing care, medications for pain relief, and an element of therapy for the emotional challenges that clients may experience during this initial phase of recovery. Clients will also meet with detox specialists to discuss their treatment history and begin working on additional treatment plans to ensure success after the detoxification stage is complete.

bed-front iconInpatient

Adults in their residential treatment programs live on-site in a structured setting where they will receive education, therapy, and medical care to assist them in working through personal issues and ultimately overcoming their addiction. They focus on educating clients on the disease of addiction and giving them the tools and skills they need to be successful in recovery outside of residential treatment. Clients have access to gender-specific housing and amenities and participate in recreational activities.

truck-medical icon24-Hour Clinical Care

At certain points in the recovery process, it's important to have support available 24/7. 24-hour clinical care offers a safe environment in which to recover from drug or alcohol addiction in peace, knowing medical detox and other treatment will happen with professionals on hand.

book-medical icon12-Step

12 step programs prioritize the recovery journey as a life-long process based on personal spiritual growth and ongoing peer support. Regular attendance at 12 step meetings, which are held multiple times each day in most communities, is expected. Participants also receive one-on-one mentoring by a self-selected peer sponsor. The 12 steps are designed to encourage participants’ self-compassion, awareness, acceptance, and accountability. Dedicated programs for specialized groups, including seniors, teens, and families, are common.

house-medical iconAftercare Support

Encouraging continued specialty treatment care after a stay in a residential facility, or providing resources that promote sustained sobriety, can be key in helping a client successfully achieve abstinence. In order to give their clients the best possible chance at remaining sober, they offer aftercare programs that provide some structure, oversight, and planning post-treatment. They consider client wants and needs when making arrangements for aftercare. If the client was part of a residential program, staff may recommend that they step down into an intensive outpatient, outpatient, or partial hospitalization program to continue specialty treatment. Other aftercare options include halfway or transitional housing.

house iconSober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in Pennsylvania pay rent and contribute to household maintenance. For their contributions, individuals get the opportunity to live in a substance-free environment and receive support from others in recovery while all residents practice sober-living skills. Sober living expenses are not covered by insurance since they are not treatment services. However, grants and scholarships are often available to help individuals afford rent for men’s or women’s sober living.

Experiential Therapy

The Experiential (ROPES) Therapy program is designed to challenge the client's self-defeating limitations. A certified experiential therapist facilitates low element, experiential therapy groups that address client self-esteem and trust building issues with a variety of group and team-building exercises.

Family Therapy

Family involvement can be critical to a client’s success during and after treatment. Pyramid Healthcare has developed a family program designed to educate the client’s family members about the disease of addiction. This program helps both the individual in specialty treatment and their family learn skills and develop behaviors effective in minimizing the negative impact of the addiction on the familial relationship. Their family program can also open lines of communication between the client and their family members. Pyramid Healthcare counselors can provide family counseling if it is requested by the client.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life Skills

Assisting their clients in their search for recovery and a higher quality of life is a crucial part of their mission. In order to help individuals struggling from addiction successfully reintegrate into the community once they have completed treatment, they provide extensive life skills training at their halfway houses and residential programs. Pyramid Healthcare specialists and clinicians collaborate in an effort to provide clients with guidance and instruction on a variety of real-world topics. These include financial management, job preparation, communication skills, social etiquette, volunteerism, and the appropriate utilization of community resources.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
