About UC Health
UC Health Addiction Sciences is an outpatient substance use treatment program in Cincinnati, Ohio that's operating within UC Health Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience at the East Building.
I noted that the program serves people 18 and older with substance use disorders involving alcohol, opioids, tobacco, cocaine and other drugs.
Through proven addiction medicine, counseling and medication management UC Health delivers integrated, whole-person care within an academic health system.
Same Day Treatment Programs
I appreciate that the center offers an open access assessment with same day availability for many services.
From there you can access general outpatient care, an 8 to 12 week Intensive Outpatient Program or a daily methadone Opioid Treatment Program with office based buprenorphine treatment.
This medication assisted treatment helps ensure safety and comfort while you focus on healing. Medicines reduce drug cravings and those harsh withdrawal symptoms that often keep people from seeking recovery.
Accountability and Development
I found that with their program you'll attend individual and group counseling where you learn to develop healthy coping skills and accept accountability for your actions.
They also include psychiatric and psychological services and routine drug testing to help ensure you're adhering to the program requirements.
Counseling approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, contingency management and relapse prevention with support for co occurring mental health conditions.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Tailored for men and women over the age of 18, each adult program in Ohio incorporates multiple therapeutic methods to treat addiction. Various levels of care are offered, based on the needs of the individual.
Alcohol rehab in Ohio provides a support community that can help you overcome addiction. Through a network of support and professional interventions, you can address issues contributing to alcohol abuse and start on the path to recovery.
Drug rehab in Ohio provides comprehensive treatment to address the physical and psychological needs of those struggling with substance use disorders. This may involve inpatient and/or outpatient care.
Often, women suffer from both substance use disorder and a co-occurring mental health disorder. Women’s rehab in Ohio can treat both, which is called dual diagnosis treatment.
Distorted, negative thought patterns can lead to negative behaviors such as substance abuse. Cognitive behavioral therapy in Ohio addresses these negative thoughts to help individuals make positive changes.
Levels of Care
During outpatient rehab in Ohio, you’ll develop sober-living skills and learn how to live a sober lifestyle. This happens through regular meetings with a recovery expert and involvement in a 12-step program. Your outpatient treatment can continue for as long as you need it, from weeks to years.
For those who need intensive treatment, inpatient rehab in Ohio includes round-the-clock clinical care.and supervision. At this level of care, programs generally involve multiple addiction counseling sessions per week, which may include individual, group, and family counseling.
When you enter drug rehab in Ohio, detox is your first step toward recovery. Detox involves slowly and safely purging your systems of all addictive substances. This happens under 24/7 supervision and may include medication for withdrawal.
