Ocean State Recovery Center

Who is this facility a good fit for?

• Best fit if: Adults looking for PHP, IOP, or outpatient treatment or who still need daily support and structure after finishing withdrawal management (detox) or residential treatment; have co-occurring mental health conditions; want medication options combined with counseling; who need treatment while also attending school, working, or meeting family responsibilities.

• Not a fit if: Adults looking for residential rehab, inpatient treatment, or medically supervised detox; prefer a rehab with luxury accommodations; seeking primarily alternative or experiential therapies.

What to expect

Developing your care plan

• Collaboration: Treatment planning happens collaboratively between the client and therapist, based in part on comprehensive assessments that occur during intake. Plans are reassessed regularly as clients progress through the program.
• First few days: Clients will meet their primary therapist and begin therapy groups and individual counseling. If medical evaluation is needed, clients meet with a nurse practitioner within 48 hours.
• Case management: Case managers are available to determine if additional support services are needed, offering support throughout treatment and discharge planning.
• Approaches: Key therapy approaches include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed counseling, motivational interviewing, treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions, and medications for addiction treatment (MAT) integrated with counseling. Clients also participate in relapse prevention work, family education, building recovery work, and medication management when appropriate.

Who you will meet with

• Primary therapist: Clients are assigned a primary therapist who leads their one-on-one sessions, helping them understand personal barriers to recovery. Individual therapists also help clients manage co-occurring mental health conditions.
• Group therapists/group leaders: Group therapists and leaders help clients increase their understanding of addiction as a disease and identify self-defeating behaviors.
• Nurse practitioner: Clients have weekly appointments with a nurse practitioner to address any medical or prescribing needs.
• Case managers: Case managers help clients navigate insurance, coordinate services, and manage other barriers so that they can focus more on recovery. They also provide discharge and aftercare support.

Typical schedule

• Various levels of care: Schedules are highly dependent on the level of care, and movement between levels is based on clinical progress rather than fixed timelines.
• Partial hospitalization program: This highly-structured daytime program runs Monday to Friday from approximately 9 a.m.-3 p.m. During this time, clients attend multiple therapy groups, have weekly individual therapy sessions (more often as needed), and meet with case management and the nurse practitioner when appropriate.
• Intensive outpatient: An evening program designed for people returning to work or school. Care consists of 12 clinical hours a week of group and individual therapy on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 6-9 pm.
• Standard outpatient: Clients in outpatient treatment attend three clinical hours of group and individual therapy, one day per week.

Aftercare

• Recovery resources: Alumni support may include weekly outpatient continuation, recovery coach support, follow-ups after discharge, and an ongoing connection to the Ocean State Recovery community.
• Case management: Case managers can help connect clients to resources during discharge planning, including housing assistance, employment counseling, and community integration. This facility offers transportation assistance, but airport pick-up and drop-off are not available.
