Over 5,000 individuals, many of whom are Medicaid users, get comprehensive addiction treatment each year at Saratoga Springs, New York's St. Peter's Addiction Recovery Center (SPARC). To address the needs of those battling drug misuse, SPARC provides both inpatient and outpatient treatment alternatives. Its organized recovery program is based on the 12-Step method.
Usually, the trip at SPARC starts with a detox procedure under medical supervision. In order to facilitate a smoother transition into recovery, patients get round-the-clock care during this period, which includes drugs intended to reduce cravings and relieve withdrawal symptoms. A committed case management team made up of social workers and nurses regularly monitors patients. This group makes sure that the first phase of detoxification is not only effective but also lays the groundwork for long-term rehabilitation.
Depending on the degree of their addiction and the amount of assistance required, patients are assessed after detox to decide whether they need inpatient or outpatient therapy. The essential elements of both therapy programs are the same, and they include life skills training, health education, and counseling. The degree of monitoring and flexibility is where the main differences lie. While outpatient treatment allows for more freedom, inpatient care provides 24-hour monitoring in a more restricted setting. Patients may transition from inpatient to outpatient treatment as they heal, progressively acquiring greater independence.
Every patient who is discharged from SPARC is given a thorough aftercare plan. Coordination with social services for housing and other basic necessities is a common feature of this design. For individuals governed by court orders, SPARC assists in developing a customized program to fulfill legal requirements and promote rehabilitation.
