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.
