Their array of recreational activities really stood out to me. Their center includes a gym, swimming pool, basketball court and sand volleyball court. Plus they have walking trails, pickleball, video games, yoga, ping pong and foosball. With these activities you can learn to have fun without the need for substance use.
They offer clinically managed detox if needed. Under the supervision of their medical professionals you will be able to work through your withdrawal symptoms. You’ll be in a safe environment with round the clock supervision and monitoring.
Once you have completed detox you will be able to continue treatment with their residential program. Your length of stay will be determined by your specific needs and meeting your treatment goals.
After you complete residential treatment you can step down to their partial hospitalization program (PHP). You’ll engage in 20 hours of programming each week. Or you can choose their intensive outpatient program (IOP) which requires between nine and 20 hours of programming per week. Aftercare planning will also be included in your treatment.
