About Assisted Recovery Center of GA Inc

The in-suite medical detox is a program for clients who need medical intervention to eliminate alcohol or drugs from his or her body. This medical detox is performed in a private suite. Medications and other interventions are provided by specially trained, licensed nurses under physician supervision to help clients manage the symptoms of withdrawal. After completion of this program, the client and family will have the opportunity to participate in one of our outpatient treatment programs. To participate in this program, clients must be medically stable with no history of seizures, not currently pregnant, do not have acute hepatitis, uncontrolled hypertension, or any other uncontrolled mental or physical illness. This also includes no history of violence towards self or others.

Our Intensive Outpatient Program is for individuals who request or require a greater amount of individual or family therapy. This program is designed for clients who live in the Savannah area and can come to our offices at least twice a week for therapy. Group therapy sessions last for about 1.5 hours and are facilitated by a licensed therapist. These group sessions are not 12-step based and utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy and cognitive restructuring methods. With the help of the therapist and group members, clients learn how to adjust to life without the use of alcohol or drugs. Clients will have the opportunity to work individually with a licensed therapist for 20 hours. Based on the needs of the client and the therapist’s assessment, these hours may be used for individual or family therapy. These hours will be scheduled at the convenience of the client, family, and therapist.

Clients who would be best suited for this program include:

• Have no to mild levels of emotional, behavioral, or cognitive conditions
• Report a readiness to change but need a structured program to achieve sobriety
• Need close support and monitoring to maintain abstinence
• Have a supportive environment and good coping skills, or can cope with provided support and structure
