Philadelphia County Addiction Treatment
Providence Treatment is a drug rehab in Philadelphia County specifically designed for individuals with demanding careers, such as pilots, doctors, lawyers, and other professionals. This focus helps ensure that the treatment is relevant to the unique pressures and schedules of these professions.
Vetted and Approved Programs
The treatment programs are vetted by relevant authorities, including the FAA for airline pilots. This means that the programs are compliant with industry standards and regulations, providing assurance of quality and appropriateness for professionals in sensitive roles.
Providence offers flexibility with PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) and IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program). PHP duration is assessed weekly based on individual needs, and IOP sessions are held in the evenings to accommodate work schedules. A one-year commitment is recommended, providing a structured and comprehensive approach to treatment that supports long-term recovery and stability.
Offering Customized Help for Professionals
Collaboration with Medical Professionals and Employers
Providence works closely with medical professionals and employers to determine when a client is ready to return to work, ensuring that the transition is managed thoughtfully and safely. The use of evidence-based practices and group therapy designed for professionals ensures that the treatment is effective and relevant. The group therapy setting, or “cohort setting,” allows clients to connect with others who have similar career-related stressors, which can enhance understanding and support.
New Locations and Expansion
With locations in Boston and Philadelphia, Providence Treatment is expanding to meet the needs of professionals across regions. The Boston location was opened in response to a demand for specialized programs for professionals in Massachusetts, which has a high rate of impaired physicians.
Focus on Young Professionals
The program is specifically designed to meet the needs of young professionals, including those currently enrolled in medical or law school. It offers targeted support and intervention services that are customized to their specific stage of career development. These benefits make Providence Treatment a compelling choice for professionals seeking specialized care that aligns with their career demands and personal needs.
