American Recovery Center

About American Recovery Center – Pomona

American Recovery Center Behavioral Health Services (BHS) is located in Pomona, California. They provide detox, withdrawal and substance abuse treatment services in outpatient and residential settings.

Their Withdrawal Management Detox Program provides a residential detox treatment setting that includes 24 hour medical supervision. They want to make your detox from drugs and or alcohol as comfortable as possible. Treatment should last about 10 to 14 days depending on your situation. You’ll get education about addiction, and they’ll show you self help programs. They’ll also refer you to places for continued care and provide resources where you can find support in your community.

The residential treatment program focuses on helping those with substance abuse issues to work intensively on problems in life that may lead to relapse. It’s a three to six month program of therapeutic intervention and education to help you find long term solutions to your current and past problems due to substance abuse. They also help you build a recovery support network for when you’re done with the program, that gives you better odds for long term success.

Their outpatient substance abuse treatment program has different layers of intensity depending on what you need. It could be one to five days per week and anywhere from three to nine months long. It’s for people who have gone through the residential program or for those whose situation wasn’t severe enough to need a residential program. Their main goal here is for you to focus on preventing relapse, as well as to use recovery tools in everyday life.

They offer a very unique service here partnered with UCLA Integrated Substance Abuse Programs, UCLA ISAP. It’s a recovery incentive program that can give Medi-Cal recipients gift cards of up to $599 for staying off of cocaine, methamphetamine and some other stimulants. They’ll gauge this from negative drug tests. The theory behind this program is to provide a sense of reward similar to that of what you might feel from using meth or cocaine.

What I really like about this detox and recovery center is that they don’t seem to place any judgment on your situation. They try to make your treatment as comfortable as possible while being thorough so that your recovery is successful in both the short and long term.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

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.

Medically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal.

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Sober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
