Pyramid's Continuum of Care

We offer a full continuum of high-quality behavioral health care for adults suffering from substance abuse or addiction, making the treatment process – from detox to outpatient – as simple and consistent as possible.

Detox
Detox
Dealing with withdrawal symptoms without medical help can be difficult and even life-threatening. It can also lead to relapse, as an individual craves the drug or alcohol to make symptoms go away.

While the severity of symptoms is different for everyone, medically managed detox is often recommended for those who have a history of addiction. It’s a way to manage acute withdrawal symptoms in a safe and comforting environment with medical supervision.

Residential Treatment
Residential Treatment
In residential or inpatient programs, clients live on-site, meaning they have 24-hour supervision or care. Program length can vary and is dependent on each individual’s needs, but it is usually between 30 to 90 days. Typically, days are scheduled with activities, therapy and medical care, leaving minimal unstructured time.

Residential care is often for clients who have completed medical detox and no longer require medical stabilization. In addition, clients may need residential treatment if their symptoms aren’t managed or if they have tried rehabilitation before unsuccessfully.

Partial Hospitalization
Partial Hospitalization
Partial hospitalization programs (PHP) are 20 or more hours per week and are designed for complex substance use disorders or co-occurring disorders that do not require 24-hour care. These may also be referred to as day programs as they are usually 5½ hours per day.

Partial hospitalization is not residential treatment. Similar to IOP and other levels of care, PHP can be a step up or step down depending on a client’s individual treatment needs.

Intensive Outpatient
Intensive Outpatient
Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) occur in non-residential settings. However, IOP consists of fewer treatment hours per week than partial hospitalization.

IOP may be ideal for clients who have complex symptoms or co-occurring disorders but don’t need residential treatment. Alternatively, IOP can be a step-down level of care for clients who have completed residential rehab or PHP.

Outpatient Treatment
Outpatient Treatment
The outpatient level of care takes place in a non-residential setting, so clients can live at home while participating in treatment. Outpatient treatment is fewer than 9 hours per week for adults and fewer than 6 hours per week for adolescents.

This level of care may be for someone with less severe symptoms of a substance use disorder. It may also be a lower level of care for someone who has completed residential treatment.
