There may not be an easy absolute cure for drug addiction and alcoholism, but medical professionals are certain of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug rehab program that works for everybody. Ponca City has some different types of rehab programs, each suited to different kinds of patients. The most popular kinds of rehabs offered in Ponca City are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious treatments of addiction. Each different kind of treatment provides a variety of benefits to different kinds of patients.
Ponca City's inpatient alcohol and drug treatment centers can be regarded as a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most thorough form of rehab center offered and they can deal with the issues surrounding withdrawal and detox, as well as any psychiatric issues from disorders like depression and anxiety that typically occur with addiction.
Inpatient rehab is especially helpful for people who've been struggling with long term addiction, though even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 - 60 day stay is enough to fully address the problem and fully recover.
Outpatient rehab programs allow the patient to continue going to school or to work, but because the program is outpatient it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detoxification services as well as assistance with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient rehabilitation programs are therefore suggested more for people who have short-term addictions as well as for people who have already finished an inpatient rehab program and just need additional support for their recovery.
Traditional treatment programs are generally based on the 12 step approach and traditions. Given that 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many patients feel that beginning their recovery process with one of these programs can be beneficial. Different traditional treatment programs have different ideas. Some focus on just the 12-step ideology, while others incorporate different aspects of therapy. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic rehab programs are usually inpatient programs that incorporate the whole spectrum of treatment options, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, medical care, to alternative therapy like yoga and acupuncture. These programs tend to concentrate on whole body health and good nutrition as well as methods of improving emotional health. These programs have been proven to be incredibly successful in the long term.
Religious drug rehab centers incorporate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual healing and health, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug rehab programs. They can be helpful with patients who were brought up to have faith in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with healing their addiction. Ponca City is home to various religiously oriented drug treatment programs. Most Christian drug rehab programs tend to focus on the 12 step approach due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
