Overcoming an addiction to drugs or alcohol is a challenging process.
But you’re not in the fight alone. The team at Tru Dallas offers personalized recovery plans that can help you get more out of the time and money you spend on healing. Here’s a closer look at how we support that process.
Understand Your Drug and Alcohol Recovery Timeline
The first thing you need to know is that recovery is a multi-step process. You’ll start with detox, move into rehab, and then transition your healing into the real world with an aftercare plan. Here’s more information on each step.
Detox
Every recovery journey starts in detox. This is when the body gets rid of the last traces of the substance you’ve been abusing. It’s a time when you may experience peak withdrawal symptoms and cravings, but that can vary from person to person.
We offer detox in our medical facility so you can be safe and comfortable throughout the process. This is better than detoxing at home, which can be dangerous — especially if you’ve had a serious addiction.
Rehab
Once you’re finished with detox, you’ll be ready to move into rehab. This is the most intensive stage of care. It’s a one-to-three month process in which you’ll work with a therapist, participate in group meetings, and enjoy other holistic healing services.
We offer several forms of rehab to suit the diverse needs of our patients. These include:
- Inpatient rehab
- Outpatient rehab
- Dual diagnosis care
- Pet and couple-friendly rehab
- Medication-assisted treatment (MAT)
If you aren’t sure which form of care is best for you, keep reading. Or get in touch with a member of our care team for a personalized recommendation.
Aftercare
When you finish rehab, you won’t need as much direct assistance from therapists and counselors. But you’ll still want help with maintaining your recovery as you transition back into the real world.
That’s where aftercare comes in. It’ll help you take what you learned in rehab and use it to establish a better life for yourself. We’ll recommend a personalized aftercare plan when you’re finishing rehab. It may include time in a sober living home, continuing to work with a therapist, and going to group meetings, among other forms of support.
Which Type of Care Is Right for You?
Maybe you know you need drug and alcohol treatment, but you don’t know which type. If so, try asking yourself the following questions. They’ll help you narrow down your options and develop a better understanding of what you need to heal.
What’s your home environment like?
First, think about your home environment. Is it a structured place full of people who support your recovery? Or are there other addicts living there and people who contribute to your problems?
The answer can influence whether inpatient or outpatient rehab is better for you. Inpatient care means living in a treatment center full-time, while outpatient care lets you go home to sleep in your own bed at night.
Both options can help you beat addiction, but inpatient care is better for people who lack supportive home environments. Outpatient rehab, on the other hand, can work for you if you live somewhere supportive and safe.
Where are you in the recovery process?
You’ll also need some clarity on where you are in your recovery journey. If you’re just getting started, you’ll need to complete detox before moving on to rehab. Or, if you’ve already done rehab, you may be ready for aftercare. We offer many forms of support at each level of care, so feel free to reach out if you aren’t sure which is best for you.
Do you need any special forms of care?
Another factor to consider is whether you have any special needs. For example, we offer pet-friendly rehab and a special joint rehab option for couples. There’s also a medication-assisted treatment option for people who want help with managing cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
How are you paying for drug and alcohol treatment?
Finally, consider how you’ll pay for the drug and alcohol treatment you need. If you have great insurance, then it will be easy to pick the best possible option for your recovery. But if you’re paying more out of your own pocket, you may need to scale back on services initially.
Don’t worry, you don’t have to make this decision on your own. You can call Tru Dallas with your insurance information to have us verify your coverage. We’ll call your provider and let you know exactly how much you’d pay out of pocket for the kind of support you need.
The Tru Dallas Difference
There are many places you can find drug or alcohol treatment in the Lone Star State. But Tru Dallas offers several unique benefits that can help you get more value from treatment. These include each of the following.
Personalized Plans
First, we design every patient’s plan around their unique needs. This means you’ll receive the exact forms of support you require to heal — not the same generic care that every patient receives. This can help you get more done with the time you set aside for rehab.
Multiple Forms of Care
Next, we provide multiple forms of care in every recovery plan we offer. You’ll get to work with a skilled therapist, participate in group meetings, and join in our holistic healing activities. This helps to unite the mind, body, and spirit in recovery so you can heal faster.
Broad Insurance Acceptance
Finally, we accept insurance coverage from most major carriers. This makes it easier to pay for the services you need. Just get in touch, and we’ll let you know if we accept your plan.
