At ARC Savannah, medical detox is offered to remove all addictive drugs from the body while under the care of licensed medical professionals who ensure the clients are as comfortable as possible during the process. They provide FDA-approved medications and other interventions under physician supervision to help manage withdrawal symptoms. After completing the detox program, clients and family members can participate in one of ARC’s outpatient treatment programs.

IOP in Savannah is designed for clients who live in the area and can come to the office four days a week for two-hour sessions of group therapy. Clients can also work one-on-one with a licensed therapist one day per week. Based on unique needs and the therapist’s assessment, these sessions may be for individual or family therapy. These appointments must be scheduled.

Those who struggle with opioid abuse often require FDA approved medications to assist in the detox process and maintaining recovery. ARC specifically utilizes Suboxone as a tool in their MAT program. The medication is administered by a professional who can manage the dose and track progress. Counseling is required to support treating the underlying cause of the addiction, allowing for a higher rate of success in remaining abstinent.

Dual diagnosis, often referred to as co-occurring disorders, is when two or more mental health concerns present themselves simultaneously. It is very common for those who struggle with addiction to also have an underlying mental health concern such as anxiety, depression, or a diagnosable psychiatric disorder. Without proper treatment of the mental health issue at hand, getting and staying sober can be difficult. By treating both the substance use disorder and the mental health needs concurrently, a greater chance for long-term sobriety is achieved.
