There may not be a simple cure for alcohol or drug addiction, but medical professionals are certain of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug treatment center that works for every person. Urbandale has some various types of rehab programs, each directed toward different kinds of patients. The most preferred types of rehabs offered in Urbandale are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious based treatments of addiction. Each different type of treatment provides a variety of advantages to different kinds of patients.
Urbandale's inpatient rehab centers can be considered a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most extensive form of rehab center offered and they can tackle the issues encompassing withdrawal and detox, as well as any psychiatric issues from disorders like anxiety and depression that frequently occur with addiction.
Inpatient treatment is especially effective for those who've been living with long term addiction, though even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 - 60 day stay is enough to wipe the problem and get a new start.
Outpatient rehab programs allow the patient to continue going to work or school, but because the program is done on an outpatient basis it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detox services as well as support with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient rehabilitation programs are therefore recommended more for individuals who have short-term addictions as well as for patients who have already finished an inpatient treatment program and just need support for their recovery.
Traditional treatments are generally based on the 12 step programs and traditions. Given that 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many people feel that starting their recovery process with one of these programs is very beneficial. Different traditional treatment programs have different principles. Some focus on just the 12-step ideology, while others integrate different elements of treatment. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic rehab programs are typically inpatient programs that include the whole spectrum of treatment options, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy, medical care, to alternative therapy like acupuncture and yoga. These programs tend to focus on whole body health and good nutrition as well as approaches of improving psychological health. These programs have been proven to be extremely successful in the long term.
Religious drug rehabilitation centers integrate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual health and healing, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug treatment programs. They can be helpful with patients who were brought up to believe in a particular religion and feel that going back to their religious roots would help with treating their addiction. Urbandale is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug treatment programs. Most Christian drug rehabs have a tendency to focus on the 12 step approach due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
