Inpatient Treatment

Note: Caron’s treatment programs are licensed on a state level, and within each state we have licensed levels of care. Caron in Pennsylvania is licensed for in-patient, non-hospital, short-term detoxification services and in-patient, non-hospital, residential and rehabilitation services. Caron Renaissance and Caron Ocean Drive in Florida are licensed for day or night with community housing, day or night programs, intensive outpatient, outpatient treatment, and aftercare services. While there are differences in licensing in different states, there are many similarities between the clinical services offered in Pennsylvania and Florida.

What is Inpatient Addiction Treatment?

Inpatient substance use disorder treatment programs (also called Inpatient drug rehab and inpatient alcohol rehab) are intensive, rehabilitation-focused, and residential. The treatment approaches taken and level of care offered in residential rehab programs can vary, but almost all of them include different types of therapy, medical care, and other support services. Designed to help people with serious and complex addictions through the recovery process, residential treatment programs require patients to stay full-time at a particular rehabilitation and treatment facility, sometimes for as long as six months. During that time, patients address their substance use disorder and any co-occurring behavioral health challenges or dual diagnoses with emotional, social, psychological, and medical support from trained addiction staff.

The Benefits of Inpatient Treatment

Both inpatient and outpatient treatment programs offer different benefits and serve different types of patients with different types of needs. Alcohol inpatient and inpatient drug treatment programs generally offer the following benefits:

How long is a treatment stay? Do we offer any shorter lengths of stay?

Treatment stays may last up to six months but can also be shorter, depending on the needs of the patient.

Types of Addiction Best Treated With Inpatient Care

Inpatient drug rehabilitation facilities serve best those patients who are struggling to manage symptoms and cravings in outpatient care, have made efforts at rehabilitation before and been unsuccessful, or who have complex addictions. Inpatient drug and alcohol rehab may also be the best choice for patients who need Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid addiction. While some outpatient programs include medication-assisted therapy, for many patients in need of Medication-Assisted Treatment — especially if they’re undergoing medical detox for alcohol or benzodiazepines — a residential program is ideal.

Caron’s Treatment Centers

Caron operates treatment facilities in Pennsylvania and Florida, utilizing comprehensive and personalized solutions proven to meet patients’ needs and their families’ needs. While some may categorize Caron’s facilities as inpatient, it is important to note that there are differences in the licensing of our facilities across states. Caron Pennsylvania is a licensed non-hospital residential facility, while our Florida facilities, Caron Renaissance and Caron Ocean Drive, hold day/night with community living licenses, meaning patients reside in one location and attend treatment programs in a separate clinical location. Caron's treatment options include medical supervision for withdrawal symptoms, group therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, substance abuse treatment combined with treatment for underlying mental health conditions, family therapy, and other evidence-based approaches to treatment and care.
