Medical Detox Daily Schedule: What to Expect at AdCare
A typical day in the medical detox program at AdCare in Rhode Island starts at 7 am. After waking up, you have some free time to shower and get ready for the day. Breakfast is served at 8 am. We provide healthy, nutritious meals, as well as coffee, snacks, and juice.
The first group starts at 9 am and focuses on recovery goals and change. This is followed by a relapse prevention group at 11 am and lunch at 12 pm.
The afternoon offers more group therapy, including a 1 pm psychoeducational group and a 3 pm group that focuses on rotating topics, such as stress management, mindfulness, and healthy boundaries.
Dinner is served at 5 pm and is followed by a self-help group meeting, like Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous. After the final meeting is complete, you will have free time until 11 pm, when lights go out.
Group therapy is a significant component of treatment at our Rhode Island facility. Each group therapy session is approximately 75 minutes and run by a licensed mental health professional or substance use clinician. Some of our group topics include:
- Psychoeducation
- Relapse prevention
- Process groups
- Focus groups
We provide a variety of different therapeutic approaches including:
- Motivational interviewing
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
- Cognitive processing therapy (CPT)
In total, you will participate in approximately 5 to 7 hours of group therapy each day. During detox, you will also meet with an individual counselor three times per week, where you can talk about your addiction one-on-one and learn healthier ways to cope with this condition.
In addition to its strong focus on behavioral therapy, AdCare Treatment Centers includes the use of the 12-Step recovery model, which is used in self-help groups like Alcoholics Anonymous. This model provides a program for recovery, and includes steps such as accepting your addiction and surrendering to a higher power to help you recover from addiction.3 You will also have the opportunity to attend 12-Step meetings during your time in treatment, which will help connect you with a sober community while you practice these steps.
