Levels of care
- Detox
- Detox treatment points straight ahead to ongoing care, because getting through withdrawal is only the start of treating a substance use disorder.
- Inpatient / residential
- Planning the step down to outpatient care takes up part of the day before an inpatient stay ends.
- Partial hospitalization (PHP)
- People in Tennessee who need more than evening programs often turn to day treatment. It brings fuller days of support without taking anyone away from home at night.
- Outpatient
- Outpatient care often picks up where a fuller program left off, with support continuing in Tennessee.
- Aftercare support
- Talking through next steps often begins weeks before discharge, when goals and support options are still open to change. This early planning gives a person a map for the months ahead.
- Co-occurring disorders
- A person with both a substance use disorder and a mental health condition at the same time is living with co-occurring disorders. Care built for that pairing is available in Tennessee.
- Sober living
- The home runs on a handful of simple rules, with sobriety first and shared chores close behind.
