Drug and alcohol treatment centers offer effective approaches to treatment, but some patients have trouble applying all these lessons to everyday life once they complete residential treatment programs.
At Banyan Treatment Center Chicago, we offer intensive outpatient treatment to help ease the transition back into sober living once a patient completes a higher level of treatment care. Our intensive outpatient program in Chicago (IOP) provides a comfortable setting where patients can attend school, work, or pursue volunteer activities while attending treatment on an outpatient basis.
When is IOP Treatment the Right Choice?
IOP treatment is often considered a “step down” treatment, which is utilized following detox and/or residential treatment programs. Our IOP treatment in Illinois allows patients to learn skills of sobriety and apply those skills to real world settings. This treatment program includes individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy sessions. IOP patients meet with their therapist regularly, depending on client needs.
IOP treatment for alcohol and drug addiction can be extremely beneficial to a patient’s recovery, however other steps are often required first. Most importantly, the patient needs to have completed the detox process. This is true for any treatment path. Other qualifications include patient stability. Patients with pressing medical needs may benefit from residential or partial hospitalization programs (PHP) rather than standalone IOP treatment. Patients needing 24/7 support will have greater success with these higher levels of care.
