Our Program Options at Wellbridge
Our Long Island treatment center provides a peaceful, distraction-free setting with 24/7 clinical care and evidence-based treatment options, so you can fully focus your energy on healing and recovery.
Detox & Medical Stabilization
The process of detoxification is often the first step to healing. We offer detox as a way for you to manage immediate withdrawal symptoms in a safe location with healthcare at your fingertips. Our rehab program seamlessly incorporates detox and medical stabilization into the healing process, allowing you to smoothly transition into the next level of care.
Residential Treatment
At this level of care, treatment strategies will be fully implemented, from mental health and behavioral therapy to daily physical therapies and wellness activities.
Aftercare Planning
Aftercare planning helps you prepare for maintaining recovery outside of inpatient treatment. Your aftercare plan may include referrals to outpatient treatment, resources for support groups, or other community resources that will help you maintain sobriety.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
At Wellbridge, we understand that medication can help clients in their recovery on a case-by-case basis. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) combines medications to treat addiction symptoms and various therapeutic modalities. It is most commonly used to treat opioid and alcohol addiction. Our programs seamlessly incorporate MAT into treatment.
