Choosing the Right Rehab Program in South Carolina

Early intervention and research into specific treatment programs are both vital to a successful recovery. Inpatient care programs are effective for people who require structure and close monitoring. When searching for the right program, keep the following factors in mind:

  • Accreditation: Accreditation is a formal evaluation that shows a treatment center meets certain standards of care set by the Joint Commission, CARF, or other oversight organizations. In some cases, facilities may be licensed or certified by South Carolina.
  • Evidence-based Approaches: Evidence-based approaches are clinically proven treatment methods for addiction. They have been studied, researched, and put to the test. One example is a therapy called motivational interviewing for stimulant addiction.
  • Length/Location: Treatment length varies and is usually determined by an individual assessment. Inpatient programs may last between 28-90 days or longer. To find the best program, consider traveling out-of-state for the right fit.
  • Aftercare and Alumni Services: Many rehab centers provide aftercare services, or a continuum of care, as part of their offered treatment program. This may include partnering with support groups, coordinating peer sponsorship, or outpatient counseling.
  • Payment: Rehab programs are generally paid for with a combination of insurance and private pay. Be sure to check with the insurance provider to determine coverage, and then double-check the rehab center accepts that insurance.

South Carolina Drug and Alcohol Rehab Services

Some of the different types of drug and alcohol addiction treatment services found throughout South Carolina include:

  • Drug and Alcohol Detox Programs: Detox programs provide safety and support as a person experiences uncomfortable symptoms of withdrawal. The goal of these programs is to help a person prepare for treatment.
  • Behavioral Therapy: This focuses on recognizing triggers and developing positive coping skills. Common therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy.
  • Medication-assisted Treatment (MAT): This advanced substance abuse treatment method works to combine behavioral therapy with FDA-approved medications to treat alcohol and opioid addictions.
  • Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders: Addiction often co-occurs with underlying mental health conditions like trauma or anxiety. This treatment is designed to treat both conditions at the same time with a multidisciplinary approach.
