Medical Detox
A medical detox is a medical safety step. DETOX IS NOT TREATMENT. Withdrawal from some drugs and alcohol dependency can be life threatening. Detox is a safe and comfortable way to safely titrate someone off their drug of abuse under medical supervision. The duration of detox varies, but 6 days or less is an average “window of time’ from a safety perspective.

Intensive Outpatient Program/Outpatient/Partial Hospitalization Programs (IOP/OP/PHP)
An outpatient program is more rigorous than an hour in a therapist’s office, but less intensive than a residential treatment setting. Outpatient at any level does not require the individual to live at the facility where treatment is being provided. Outpatient programing can include individual counseling, group therapy, education for coping skills, medication and case management. Please note there are many variations and levels in competence of care.
The difference is usually the number of hours per week spent in therapeutic programing.
While the number of therapeutic hours may vary, The following is for general reference points.
PHP- Usually daily programing where individuals spend a significant portion of their day 20 hours per week in therapeutic programing
IOP- Fewer hours of therapeutic treatment, averaging engagement often 9-12 hours per week of programming spanning 3-4 sessions per week, often suggested as a step down post RTC
OP- 2-6 hours of therapy per week, often1 or 2 nights per week.
Residential Treatment Program
Residential treatment is an inpatient program takes place in a dedicated treatment facility. It serves a purpose in safety and giving a person the opportunity to focus on getting healthy without the distractions of regular daily life. RTC involves individual therapy, group therapy, 24 hour staffing and supervision and supportive services. The average stay is 30 days but can go as long as 90 days.
Sober Living Environment (SLE)
Sober living homes provide structure, support, and accountability for those coming out of primary care and those who have relapsed in a that would benefit from the added structure, support and accountability. It is also appropriate for some who are involved in outpatient treatment programs. Sober Living homes require residents to live-in and adhere to a curfew, work, volunteer or continue outpatient services during the day, drug testing, chores, and in other ways work towards becoming healthier, more responsible, and adjust to a new life living a life in Recovery.
