Recovering from substance use disorder doesn’t stop when detox or residential treatment does. In fact, it’s just the beginning of a lifelong journey. Continuing care includes outpatient programs like PHP and IOP. Both extend therapeutic benefits that enhance short-term progress while setting the stage for the big picture – a joyous life free from alcohol or drugs.

The continuing care programs at Samba Recovery in Atlanta will get you on your own path as you grow in sobriety.

Understanding Continuing Care

Continuing care programs are designed to support individuals in their transition from inpatient care to supervised lower levels of care that maintain treatment momentum. Whether it’s partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient or outpatient alone, you’ll discover the vital support, responsibility, and relapse prevention approaches you need.

By adopting continued treatment, you’ll have more time to focus on behavioral change. At the same time, it’s a softer landing as patients return to school, work and family responsibilities.

Congruent Benefits of Outpatient Programs

An effective outpatient program offers abundant benefits to the patient and their families. Outpatient program benefits include:

• Continuity of care– PHP, IOP, and OP programs provide ongoing emotional and foundational support, assisting patients to traverse the trials they may run into after inpatient treatment.
• Relapse prevention and skill building– Patients learn invaluable coping strategies that prevent relapse, ensuring they stay on the road of recovery.
• Bridges gap from inpatient care to daily life– We assist patients to acclimate back into their daily lives and community, fostering independence and strength.
• Positive recovery outcome– Outpatient participation considerably improves the likelihood of long-term recovery while lowering the risk of substance relapse.

Familiar Behavioral Therapy Continuation

Continuing care programs offer a holistic approach to recovery, providing ongoing support and care for individuals as they continue their journey toward lasting sobriety.

• Individual therapy– Most successful recovery patients attend individual therapy sessions for at least one year, ensuring personalized care for bumps in the road.
• Group therapy– Group therapy keeps it real for recoverees by relating to their peers and providing continuity of community and understanding.
• Medication management – Medication management services help patients manage any co-occurring mental health disorders or other concerns.
