Inpatient Drug Rehab Treatment in Naples: The WhiteSands Approach

The Importance of Inpatient Drug Rehab

An inpatient drug rehabilitation center is a place where you reside full-time under the care and guidance of medical and mental health professionals dedicated to your recovery. If you’re concerned that you’re at high risk of relapsing if you have proximity to your home, community, or friends, inpatient drug rehab provides a secure environment where you can strengthen your recovery skills rather than spending your energy avoiding risk. Without access to substances, there’s a higher likelihood that you will complete treatment, achieve sobriety, and regain psychological, social, and occupational functioning. Longer treatment stays are correlated with a higher success rate of long-term recovery. Learning the tools to prevent relapse decreases your risk of relapse or of developing another Substance Use Disorder. 

What Sets Inpatient Treatment Apart?

Inpatient drug rehab offers many benefits to those seeking to recover from Substance Use Disorder. These include:

Medical and mental health support while going through withdrawal and detox

This experience can be overwhelming and unsafe while alone. The withdrawal and detox process can be highly unpleasant and understandably an experience you want to avoid in isolation. Withdrawing from meth can cause anxiety or fatigue, while opioid withdrawal can induce body aches, digestive symptoms, high blood pressure, shaking, or fever. Other symptoms may include anxiety, restlessness, poor concentration, and poor sleep. It’s important that you withdraw with medical guidance and mental health support to reduce the risk of becoming distressed. 

In case severe or even life-threatening symptoms develop, being in inpatient drug rehab means that there is always a professional available to assess you, intervene, and/or administer medication to ease your symptoms. Having professional guidance and resources also increases your likelihood of enduring withdrawal and taking the next steps toward your recovery. 

Built-in community

If you used substances with family members or friends, you may anticipate that if you stop using you will be lonely and isolated. Another benefit of choosing inpatient drug rehab is that you have daily opportunities to connect with others having similar experiences, practice healthy communication, build sober social supports, and learn with each other as you create goals for your recovery and future.

Follow-up care for long-term recovery

Inpatient drug rehab centers typically also offer support and services that promote long-term recovery. These may include ongoing counseling, support groups, medication management, sober housing, and even services to help facilitate job transitions.
