Research suggests at least 3 months in treatment is necessary to begin to heal from the damaging effects of substance abuse on the brain and body and learn the recovery tools necessary for recovery maintenance. It is recognized that 30-day programs may not be of sufficient duration and that longer treatment times result in better outcomes. This is particularly true for clients with co-occurring disorders and trauma and/or adverse life experiences.
At Vizown a client’s length of stay is determined by their progress made upon their individual goals. However, in our clinical experience, most of our patients will require between 60 and 90 days. Vizown uses a Learning Continuum to work toward discharge. This Learning Continuum allows for individualized care that is specifically targeted to the clients concerns and allows the clinical team to track progress regarding measurable key goals and objectives. During a client’s stay at Vizown , our clinical team works diligently with providers within the client’s community to establish an optimum transition between levels of care and service providers.
