Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

About Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation – Chaska

Based in a southwest, suburban area known as Twin Cities in Chaska this center is just one of 5 Hazelden Betty Ford’s locations in Minnesota. With many more facilities dotted across 8 states nationwide. This center provides certified and accredited family and children’s services, outpatient mental health care, and addiction treatment for adults aged 18 and older.

Clients here can expect thorough and personalized addiction treatment here, that takes into account the complexity of this often misunderstood condition. A unique team approach is taken here. This means clients can expect to be assigned a primary addiction counselor, who also consults with a team of specialized therapists and psychologists to make sure treatment is integrated and fully aligned.

The teams here understand that one of the first steps to recovery is helping clients learn how to manage their symptoms as a means of regaining and maintaining their overall health and wellbeing. It’s thought that the structure that outpatient treatment provides can effectively support with this.

Depending on their needs and the severity of their addiction, clients can choose between varying levels of outpatient programming. In order of intensity, these include day treatment, or partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and low-intensity outpatient. IOP is available virtually and in-person for greater accessibility.

You’ll attend PHP services for four days a week, five hours a day. Comparatively, IOP takes place over the same number of days, but instead for three hours per day. As individuals progress through treatment, they may be gradually transitioned down to lower-intensity programming.

Individuals with dual-diagnosis or co-occurring disorders are also accommodated here. Mental health assessments and therapy can be integrated into individuals’ treatment plan, making sure all their needs are adequately addressed. This is mostly done through individual and group therapy sessions, as well as special focus groups like dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

12-Step

12 step programs such as Alcoholics or Narcotics Anonymous are support group style programs for individuals who are experiencing alcohol or substance use disorder. At Evoke they use a holistic model of addiction care that includes using 12 step programs. These programs are an integral part of most relapse prevention plans and provide continued support and accountability that support sobriety.

Aftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

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.

Intervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

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.

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.
