Roger Williams Medical Center – Addiction Medicine Treatment

Alcoholism

Many people with alcohol use disorder (AUD) can benefit from alcohol rehab in Rhode Island. This condition involves physical and psychological dependence on alcohol. Rehab programs combine medical and behavioral therapies to help you develop the necessary skills for maintaining a sober lifestyle.

Drug Addiction

During drug rehab in Rhode Island, you’ll participate in a variety of therapeutic interventions designed to help you break free from addiction. Common methods include cognitive behavioral therapy, music and art therapy, 12-step support, and nutrition/exercise.

Opioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance Abuse

Substance abuse treatment in Rhode Island is usually in a drug and alcohol rehab, who provide comprehensive addiction treatment. These programs integrate evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), with vital educational resources, skill development, and counseling to help you reprogram unhelpful behaviors and learn new skills to manage your sobriety. Programs are usually available on an inpatient residential rehab basis, outpatient, intensive outpatient, or day treatment.

Outpatient

Clients who are stepping down from inpatient care and those who prefer to remain at home during treatment may choose to enroll in an outpatient rehab. These facilities offer a comprehensive continuum of care designed to evolve with clients’ changing needs. Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs are designed for clients requiring frequent and high intensity treatment. Clients in outpatient care typically engage in individual, group, and family counseling and recovery-focused life skills training.

Medically Assisted Detox

In medically assisted detox, a team of medical professionals will be on hand 24/7 as your body is detoxing from addictive substances. As a result, you may experience physical and psychological side effects, such as mood swings, anxiety, nausea, or flu-like symptoms to help alleviate potential withdrawal symptoms, and keep you as safe and comfortable throughout this process.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) support clients’ long-term sobriety and their successful reintegration into the community through high-level services that evolve with clients’ changing needs. The intensity and frequency of treatment decrease as clients stabilize, but most IOP programs involve between nine and 20 hours of treatment weekly. Intensive outpatient rehabs specialize in an array of services, including psychotherapy, medication assisted treatment (MAT), addiction and recovery education, and holistic care, such as massage and biofeedback.

Inpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

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.
