Have you ever imagined or thought of the best rehab center for you or for your siblings? This might arise if you have a child or sibling who is suffering or recovering from an addiction. Guess what, here are some guides to help you choose the right rehab center that soothes your needs.
STEP 1: Get to know your options
In choosing a specific rehab you are faced with many options, but two key factors are considered for all rehab programs, these are;
- Length of the rehab program
- Setting you choose.
For the length consideration, you can either decide to stay as long as you want or you follow a specified program length provided by your rehab center. For the setting consideration, you have the choice of fixing up the location, making it full time or part time, you are also given the choice of your desired treatment setting.
You may ask, what exactly is the treatment setting? Let’s look into the major types of treatment settings and you can then decide which one fits you.
TREATMENT SETTING
There are basically two types of treatment settings, they are;
- Inpatient rehab
- Outpatient rehab
The inpatient rehab simply means you stay in the drug treatment facility full time and overnight with great attention given to your treatment. You are offered a 24 hours service program; this option is usually ideal for you if you are diagnosed to be in severe addiction.
An outpatient option is simply an option whereby you are given the choice of attending therapy at set times and you can as well return home. This is usually great if you are a really busy and committed person both with your family and your work.
You might find outpatient treatment to be cheaper than the inpatient treatment simply because the inpatient treatment takes more to attend to serving you all through the day. Mind you, the inpatient is usually more intensive than the outpatient.
STEP 2: Your rehab path
If you haven’t made a choice yet with step1 then consider your rehab path (step2) for choosing a rehab center. To determine this, you must ask yourself certain questions
- What is your level of Addiction?
- What is your budget?
- What is your availability like?
If you are able to answer these questions sincerely, then you can move on to the next step.
STEP 3: What are your rehab goals
