About Palmetto Addiction Recovery Center – Alexandria

Palmetto Addiction Recovery Center is an addiction treatment rehab center situated in Rayville, Louisiana. They’re a dual diagnosis center, which means they also treat co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression. They also offer medication assisted treatment (MAT) in order to help you detox the safe and right way. Taking medication for detox may help reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, which can sometimes be dangerous depending on the severity of addiction.

Their levels of care include residential treatment (IP), an intensive outpatient program (IOP), a 3-day evaluation, and medical detox services. They also offer discharge planning to make sure you can integrate safely back to the real world. They have programs for both adults and adolescents.

Their residential program can range from either 30 to 60 to 90 days long, allowing you some flexibility. Their intensive outpatient program, despite the name, is less intensive in the sense that you can come in for therapy sessions then return home after. Their programs follow the model of the 12 Step Program, which has been shown to help many people recover. Their residential program offers a fitness center, outdoor sports equipment, and family therapy.

Likely, there are other counseling options, such as individual and group therapy. These options can do a great deal in helping you identify triggers and learn new coping skills for the real world.

I was impressed initially with their idyllic scenery and peaceful Bayou environment. Their log cabin-style homes hold up to eight residents per home. And these homes are gender-specific to ensure that your focus is on recovery.

Levels of Care

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.

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.
