Levels of Substance Abuse Treatment

Substance abuse treatment varies based on needs. Following are the diverse levels of care provided to meet those needs.

Alcohol and Drug Detoxification

This process, often referred to simply as detox, involves safely and comfortably removing drugs or alcohol from your system. It occurs under supervision, usually in a hospital or inpatient rehab facility.

Residential or Inpatient

Inpatient treatment involves 24/7 supervision while you live at a rehab facility. Methods of treatment typically include group and individual therapy and may also involve medication and other forms of treatment.

Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs)

PHPs involve many of the same treatment methods as inpatient care, but you live at home while receiving treatment. You only stay at the facility during treatment hours.

Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs)

IOPs offer a step down in supervision from a PHP. They involve several hours of counseling throughout the week, while you spend the rest of your time fulfilling work, school, or home obligations.

Standard Outpatient

Standard outpatient care involves minimal supervision, with just one to two hours of treatment per week. Highly motivated people with a strong support system tend to find this level beneficial.

Relapse Prevention

Relapse prevention, also called aftercare, begins after you complete a rehab program. This ongoing support may involve continued therapy and 12-step groups.

Colorado Alcohol and Drug Laws

Colorado lawmakers and public health agencies have enacted the following laws related to substance misuse and overdoses:1,2

911 Good Samaritan Law: This law states that a person is immune from criminal prosecution for an offense when they report an emergency overdose. This includes Colorado residents who call 911 or remain at the scene of the event, and the person who experienced the overdose.

Naloxone Standing Orders: Enacted in 2015, this law allows licensed prescribers to provide Naloxone to Colorado residents who may experience an opioid overdose, even without a prescription. The goal is to increase access to this overdose antidote and reduce the number of overdose deaths.

Needle-Stick Prevention: This law allows police officers to make an exception to arrest and charges for the crime of possession of drug paraphernalia if the Colorado resident informs the officer that they have a needle, syringe, or other sharp objects on their person or in their home or vehicle—prior to being searched.

Syringe Exchange Programs: In Colorado, nonprofits and health facilities can operate a syringe exchange program without prior board of health approval. Organizations and participants in these programs are also exempt from paraphernalia laws.

Marijuana Laws: Colorado legalized recreational marijuana in 2012. Adults at least 21 years old may buy up to 1 ounce of retail marijuana from a licensed store and possess up to 2 ounces at a time. It is illegal to drive in Colorado after consuming marijuana. State law sets the impairment level for marijuana at 5 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood.
