About CODAC Health, Recovery & Wellness – Substance Use Treatment & Medication Assisted Treatment – Tucson

CODAC has been providing integrated healthcare for individuals and families in Southern Arizona for up to 50 years. They operate an outpatient opioid recovery facility in Tucson, Arizona. This facility serves adults over 18 who struggle with opioid dependency. Whether it’s fentanyl or prescription pain medication they’ll help you break free from dependency and work toward lasting recovery.

They even treat pregnant and postpartum women with opioid dependency. The facility is known for their quality and individualized treatment. This is made possible by their expert team of care professionals including physicians, therapists and counselors. Recovery coaches and peer support specialists are also involved. These specialists work together to deliver a “whole person” treatment that addresses the client’s physical, mental and emotional needs.

The facility is CARF accredited. This validates their commitment to the highest standard of care delivery. It’s also great that they’re open 24/7. This means you can access treatment at your convenience. They accept Arizona’s Medicaid and various commercial insurance plans. Grants are available if you’re uninsured. Their core specialty is medication assisted treatment. This uses FDA approved medicine and counseling to treat opioid addiction.

They may use methadone or suboxone to manage withdrawal. It all depends on your unique condition. These medicines reduce withdrawal symptoms and curb cravings. This allows you to undergo individual and group counseling for lasting recovery. Multiple group sessions are available. This includes addiction education, relapse prevention and life skills development. Their Aftercare services may involve ongoing meetings with recovery coaches, peer support specialists and 12 step support groups.

They may also connect you to community resources to access housing assistance and job opportunities. Comments from past clients reflect an overall positive experience.

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.

Intensive Outpatient

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.

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.

Partial Hospitalization Program

A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is a short-term form of intensive rehab, usually for those with acute symptoms that are hard to manage but don’t require 24-hour care. PHPs have structured programming (i.e. individual and/or group therapy), and usually meet 3-5 days a week for around 6 hours (i.e. 9am-3m). Some PHPs are residential (patients sleep on site) and some are not, so patients sleep at home. PHPs can last from 1-6 months, and some offer transportation and meals.

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.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

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.
