Our Alcohol and Drug Rehab
Yuma AZ Alternative
Choosing Changes Healing in Phoenix as a Yuma Rehab Program
Table of Contents
When seeking professional support for alcohol or drug rehab, Yuma, AZ may lack the specialized programs to suit your particular needs. Substance abuse issues encompass a wide range of needs, so a cookie-cutter treatment program may fall short and disappoint the struggling person and their loved ones.
Changes Healing Center is just under 3 hours from Yuma and offers Joint Commission-accredited programs that recognize addiction as a disease, not a choice or a weakness. We focus on providing each client with a customized, non-judgmental, evidence-based treatment program. Our goal is always long-term sobriety – long after leaving drug or alcohol rehab centers.
We’ve been helping people from the Yuma, AZ, area with compassionate and effective alcohol and drug rehab. Please keep reading to learn how our full range of treatment can help you, too.
We Stand out from Yuma, AZ Drug/Alcohol Rehab Centers
While you might find some effective Yuma, AZ, drug rehab clinics, few of them will offer the in-depth resources that you’ll find with our drug and alcohol rehab programs. Here are some things that set us apart from your local drug addiction treatment options:
Changes Accepts AHCCCS (Arizona Medicaid)
As mentioned earlier, we accept Arizona Medicaid or AHCCCS, opening treatment to all, including low-income clients who are often from historically marginalized groups. We are a financially accessible choice for inpatient or outpatient treatment.
Besides AHCCCS, we also treat clients with other top insurance companies, including:
This list is only partial. If your insurance is not listed, call our admissions team. They have a dedicated insurance specialist who can help you navigate your mental health and physical wellness benefits and get an integrated treatment program approved by your insurance carriers. We will help patients minimize cost while receiving the services needed to start a clean, sober new life.
Receive the Correct Level of Care
Men and women in our program will receive a treatment program optimized to the level of care that matches their needs. Most who come from Yuma are searching for and qualifying for inpatient treatment.
In addition to residential treatment, we can also provide an outpatient program (partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient programs) with supportive sober living options. Our flexibility ensures that every person receives the proper tools needed to thrive after treatment.
Dual Diagnosis (Substance Abuse Treatment and Mental Health Programs)
We recognize the importance of providing effective mental health treatment for dually diagnosed clients. Taking this comprehensive approach ensures we address the root causes of addiction and provide therapy for both conditions simultaneously.
A Full Continuum of Care Differs from Many Drug Rehab Centers
Yuma drug program and alcohol program offerings are often somewhat limited in scope. We offer clients a full continuum of care, which may include some of the following options:
- A sub-acute detox program, treating withdrawal symptoms safely and effectively
- Case management, providing transitional support and services needed after recovery
- Individual, group, and family therapy, based on individual needs
- Medication management
- Trauma assessment and treatment
- Holistic therapies
- Relapse prevention planning (aftercare)
While some Yuma, Arizona, rehab providers may offer some of these services at their clinics, it’s smart to explore all your other options, especially Changes’ full fledged services.
Aftercare Resources and Support
The goals we set with our clients are both short- and long-term. While short-term might mean ridding drug and alcohol from the body, long-term helps people plan for a sober life after leaving the residential treatment facility. That means helping clients develop the necessary skills to cope with any remaining cravings or temptations to use again.
Our counselors work with clients to develop a plan that makes sense to each individual after they leave their addiction treatment program. Here are a few suggestions that make sense for someone from Yuma, Arizona:
