Many treatment options exist for those seeking to break their addiction to drugs or alcohol. Finding the best treatment program to suit your needs is vital to your successful recovery and maintained sobriety. An excellent option for someone unable to commit to full residential treatment is an intensive outpatient program. If you or a loved one are in need of addiction rehab programs in California, don’t wait to reach out to Oceanfront Recovery at (877) 296-7477. We can help.
What Is An Intensive Outpatient Program?
An intensive outpatient program, or IOP, is a step down in rigor from our full residential treatment program. Clients in an IOP participate in daily treatments but live in their own homes or sober living houses in Laguna Beach so that they can maintain daily responsibilities like school or work. However, this does not mean that participants are not accountable for their whereabouts or actions; clinical sessions usually require a commitment of several hours each day so that clients can maintain a structured and scheduled lifestyle even though they do not reside within their treatment facility.
IOPs are usually recommended for people who either cannot participate in our full residential treatment program due to external responsibilities or who have completed a residential treatment program and are looking for a transitional step that provides similar support with more flexibility.
Typically, all IOP services are delivered incrementally, decreasing in intensity as the client progresses through their treatment program. This makes it an ideal middle ground that gently guides participants from intensive treatment to independent living.
Benefits of an IOP
Some of the most significant benefits of an Intensive Outpatient Program are:
- The cost of outpatient treatment is lower than the cost of inpatient treatment.
- You get help and support from your loved ones as well as professionals and peers.
- You can maintain your responsibilities at home, school, or work.
- You have privacy.
- You get to join a supportive recovery community near you.
