Levels of Substance Abuse Care
Various levels of addiction treatment are available to meet different needs. Some Connecticut residents start with inpatient treatment and work their way through the continuum of care, while others begin their recovery at a less-intensive level.
Medical Detox
Detox is often a first necessary step before you can begin other formal treatment programs. It is the process of safely and comfortably removing drugs or alcohol from your system. It occurs in a supervised setting, such as a hospital or inpatient rehab facility.
[/li]
Inpatient Drug and Alcohol Rehab
During residential treatment, you live at a rehab facility and receive 24/7 supervised care. Treatments typically include individual and group therapy, as well as medication and recreational therapy.
[/li]
Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs)
PHPs allow you to receive treatment at a hospital while living at home. Services are similar to inpatient programs, but you return home during non-treatment times.
[/li]
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs)
IOPs allow you to attend counseling several days each week while spending the rest of your time fulfilling other obligations such as work or school.
[/li]
Standard Outpatient
Standard outpatient is the least intensive treatment option. It involves one to two hours of treatment per week. This low-supervision level is appropriate for highly motivated people with a strong support system.
[/li]
Relapse Prevention
Relapse prevention, also referred to as aftercare, begins once you complete a rehab program. It includes ongoing support through continued therapy, support groups, and other care programs.

Connecticut Alcohol and Drug Laws
Connecticut policy makers have passed the following laws to govern substance use and abuse and protect its citizens:1
Naloxone Access: In 2018, Connecticut lawmakers increased access to Naloxone (an opioid overdose antidote). Pharmacists and practitioners in Connecticut can distribute this medication to public organizations and provide it to people without a prescription. The end goal is to prevent deaths from overdose.
Good Samaritan Laws: These laws protect Connecticut residents who seek or receive emergency medical care for an overdose. It gives them immunity from legal repercussions for the use or possession of illegal substances, to encourage them to call emergency services in the event of a possible overdose.
Health Insurance Laws: As of 2017, Connecticut law requires most group and individual insurance policies to provide medically necessary detox and other recovery services to those who are diagnosed with substance use disorder. The laws also prohibit insurance policies from requiring prior authorization for opioid antagonists.
Limits on Opioid Drug Prescriptions: Since 2017, Connecticut lawmakers have passed laws to reduce the maximum quantity of opioids that can be prescribed to minors. The laws also increase the amount of education provided to patients about opioid risks.
