There may not be an easy absolute cure for alcohol or drug addiction, but medical professionals are sure of one thing: there's no such thing as an one-size-fits-all drug rehab program that works for everybody. Sunset has many different types of rehab programs, each suited to different kinds of patients. The most popular kinds of rehabs available in Sunset are inpatient and outpatient programs, traditional treatments, holistic drug rehabs, and religious based treatments of addiction. Each distinct type of rehabilitation offers a variety of benefits to different kinds of patients.
Sunset's inpatient drug rehab programs can be considered a gold standard of drug rehab. These programs are the most thorough form of rehab center offered and they can handle the issues encompassing withdrawal and detox, as well as any psychiatric issues such as anxiety and depression that frequently occur with addiction.
Inpatient rehabilitation is particularly beneficial for people who've been suffering with long term addiction, though even shorter-term addicts may find that a 30 day stay is enough to wipe the problem and fully recover.
Outpatient rehab programs enable the person to keep going to school or to work, but since the program is done on an outpatient basis it's easier for the patient to relapse. Detoxification services as well as support with psychological and medical problems have to be separately addressed with an outpatient rehab program.
Outpatient treatment programs are therefore recommended more for people who have short-term addictions as well as for patients who have already finished an inpatient treatment program and just need additional support for their recovery.
Traditional treatment programs are usually based on the 12 step programs and traditions. Because 12 step meetings are free, universal, and based in the community, many people feel that starting their recovery process with one of these programs can be helpful. Different traditional treatment programs have different ideas. Some focus on just the 12-step ideology, while others incorporate different aspects of treatment. Patients benefit most from these programs when they attend meetings on a daily basis.
Holistic treatment programs are usually inpatient programs that incorporate the whole spectrum of treatment approaches, from 12-step ideology, psychological treatment, medical care, to alternative therapy like acupuncture and yoga. These programs tend to concentrate on whole body health and good nutrition as well as strategies of improving psychological and emotional health. These programs have been proven to be extremely successful in the long term.
Religious drug rehab programs integrate a heavy emphasis on religiously-oriented spiritual healing and health, as well as the medical and therapeutic options of holistic and traditional drug treatment programs. They're particularly 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 healing their addiction. Sunset is home to a number of different religiously oriented drug rehabilitation programs. The majority of Christian drug rehab programs have a tendency to incorporate the 12 step method due to its belief in the influence of a "higher power".
