Adult Substance Abuse Intensive Outpatient
Outpatient Care for Substance Abuse
Approximately one in 11 people suffer from an addiction to alcohol or drugs. That’s roughly 22 million Americans. It is estimated that 60 percent of those with substance abuse issues have an underlying psychiatric disorder. Rolling Hills Hospital has created its Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) to meet the specialized needs of adults with substance abuse and mental health issues, embracing a foundation of recovery while addressing the individual’s underlying mental health needs at the same time.
PROGRAM DETAILS
The Intensive Outpatient Program at Rolling Hills is comprised of group therapy and exposure to community resources such as Alcoholics Anonymous. Our program is facilitated by licensed counselors and can bridge the gap between a traditional 28-day program and inpatient psychiatric treatment. In a group setting, individuals learn about mental health, substance use and abuse and how to cope with life’s daily stressors. Groups include relapse prevention, warning signs, understanding emotions and self-esteem.
The goal of the IOP is to promote the highest level of functioning of each patient through interactive education groups, co-occurring counseling groups, outside/consultant speaker groups, a family program and aftercare groups.
When Is Adult IOP the Right Fit?
This program can serve as a step down from inpatient detox or a step up from individual therapy. The program duration is customizable to the individual’s needs, but in most cases can last anywhere between four to six weeks.
RECOVERY ROAD: ONGOING SUPPORT
“Recovery Road” is our no-cost meetings series for former Rolling Hills Hospital patients and their families to support recovery from addiction. All former patients and their families have a lifelong membership. The meetings are comprised of 12-step program components, group therapy and mental health wellness training.
