Treatment Solutions is unlike any other approach to addiction recovery. Through our relationships with the nation’s premier treatment facilities and addiction professionals across the country, we make the arrangements and handle the details so our clients can focus on one thing – their recovery.
Treatment Solutions has the advantage of not being tied to one specific facility, so we only accept facilities within our network that exceed our industry standards. We offer effective long-term, community-based addiction treatment and have flexible payment options — from low-cost and self-pay, to a wide variety of insurance plans.
Our selection of independent addiction treatment facilities has distinct advantages:
- Our relationships allow us to offer faster admissions and more privacy guarantees and payment options than anywhere else.
- We have our own standards of success. All facilities accepted within our network must offer the highest levels of care available, and offer a minimum 30-day treatment program.
- We provide client advocates who can be in constant contact with the person in treatment and act as liaisons between the family, the facility and the client. Because we recognize the impact addiction has on the entire family, we place special emphasis on family involvement throughout the treatment process.
- Rapid response. Our unique approach allows our clients to be quickly presented with a plan outlining treatment option(s) by answering a few questions. Once a facility is decided upon, reservations and travel arrangements are immediately made — this saves additional delays and stresses during a time in which you or your family member needs immediate action.
This approach, coupled with our highly knowledgeable treatment consultants and call center representatives, allows us to truly work with you. We take your treatment needs, your financial capabilities and your recovery goals and build a personalized plan. We’re here to offer viable solutions during this difficult time. And best of all, we offer these services to our clients at no cost.
Our network approach takes the pressure off busy addiction professionals, assuring that their patients will be well cared for throughout their course of treatment. And because we recognize the addiction’s impact on the family, we place special emphasis on family involvement throughout treatment. Treatment Solutions also offers specialized adolescent addiction treatment.

Addiction and Recovery Process
We Can Help
Drug addiction treatment is a multi-step, long-term process through which someone dependent upon drugs or alcohol is detoxified, educated and rehabilitated in order to return to their lives happier and more productive. Each step is necessary to ensure complete success. Detoxifying the body of drugs is especially important in opiate addiction and alcoholism cases. Without proper detox, an addict can feel extreme physical discomfort leading to hasty departure from rehabilitation. In extreme situations, such as with heavy and extended alcohol addiction, physical symptoms can become so severe that they’re life-threatening.
After the initial detoxification period, which usually lasts 3-7 days, the person must immediately begin the next phase of drug addiction treatment. During this phase, addicts begin educational and life work processes which help bring understanding to themselves and their addictions so that may regain control over their lives. This period is the “rehabilitation” period, often referred to as attending drug rehab. This phrase is a bit of a misnomer, as you’re not necessarily being rehabilitated from drugs, but are rather being treated for the disease of addiction.
This treatment period can occur in many environments depending on your specific needs. The largest distinctions between different types of facilities are:
Hospital-Based Treatment: Addiction treatment within a clinical environment with 24-hour nurse or doctor care. This type of program is usually reserved for the most dire of cases, for example situations in which an addicted individual has other major health issues, or has severe physical manifestations from chemical detox. Occasionally, individuals with severe mental health issues, such as suicidal tendencies, causing physical harm to others or severe dissociative disorders, may also benefit more from a hospital environment or dual diagnosis treatment.
Partial Hospitalization: Similar to Hospital-Based Treatment, Partial Hospitalization Treatment also involves a clinical environment. However, usually it’s only for part of the day, while the rest of the time is spent in a more rehabilitative environment where the individual participates in group therapy, socializes with others in recovery and attends 12 step events or other programs part of the addiction recovery program. This program is a great option for those with conditions that require monitoring by medical professionals, but still well enough mentally and physically to participate in most everyday activities without threatening their well-being.
Residential Treatment: This type of addiction treatment takes place in a group environment in which the individual lives with other people participating in treatment. Residential Treatment is a 24-hours-a-day commitment. The environment can vary depending on the facility; it can be similar to a group home, likened to an apartment complex or at the higher end individual residences which house a few people at a time. The point with residential treatment is that it’s usually social and educational-based, with little medical interaction. Clients are usually free to leave at any time and are participating by their own choice in an effort to create a better, drug-free life for themselves.
Outpatient Treatment: This type of addiction treatment involves an individual living and sleeping at either their home or a halfway house and participating in group counseling, 12 step work, classes and individual counseling at a facility away from their home. Outpatient Addiction Treatment can vary in length of time, from a couple hours a week to several hours a day.
What Happens After Treatment?
After completing the initial phases of detoxification and intensive treatment, the chances for the addict to become a happier, more productive and sober individual are greatly increased. However, for the greatest chance of long-term sobriety, an appropriate, effective and realistic aftercare program must be implemented. Aftercare is a very broad term applied to any aspect of your treatment plan initiated after the initial rehabilitation phase is complete. Aftercare plans can be extensive — involving halfway houses, counseling, 12 step groups — or they can be less intensive, composing of a few counseling sessions per month. While the plans vary by individual circumstances, the best plans involve regular 12 step meeting attendance. Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous are the most common choices, though there’s a 12 step organization available for almost every type of addiction. Attending one that directly relates to your personal addiction experience can be very beneficial. Also, all aftercare plans should involve some type of relapse prevention component.
Halfway Houses: Also referred to as sober living, sober houses or transitional living facilities. These types of facilities offer a strictly drug and alcohol free environment where a recovering individual can live and work while continuing their after-care plan. Whether or not sober living will be beneficial is a personal choice between family, counselor and the individual. In certain legal situations, it’s required.
Outpatient Treatment: This type of aftercare involves an individual living and sleeping at either his or her home or a halfway house and participating in group counseling, 12 step work, support groups and individual counseling at a facility away from home. Outpatient Addiction Treatment can vary in length of time from a couple hours a week to several hours a day. The intensity depends largely on the success of the individual and the specific circumstances surrounding the addiction treatment requirements. Outpatient programs sometimes fall under the initial rehabilitation phase and are often part of the aftercare plan.
Individual Counseling: Participating in individual counseling can be an excellent way to maintain long-term sobriety, and many clients find it a very rewarding experience. Counselors can help an addict overcome the unique personal difficulties which led to drug or alcohol addiction. Not only are counselors a great therapeutic resource, but they also serve to create accountability for the recovering individual by helping set personal, familial and professional goals for the client to promote continued growth and success in sobriety, further solidifying a happy life.
