DAY ONE REHABILITATION CENTERDrug & Alcohol Rehabilitation Center, Led by Physicians and Specialists

Throughout treatment, the team assesses and follows each resident individually: the substances used, withdrawal symptoms (which differ from one substance to another and call for precise psychiatric assessment and treatment), physical health, mood, thinking, behavior, motivation to change, and any mental health or co-occurring psychiatric conditions that may affect recovery. This information shapes and adjusts each person's treatment plan, because every resident has different problems, causes, and recovery goals. Each member of the team plays a distinct role:

• Psychiatrists assess the addiction, psychiatric and mood symptoms, and co-occurring conditions, and prescribe medication when appropriate.
• Psychologists and psychotherapists help residents understand the thoughts, emotions, behaviors, triggers, cravings, and lifestyle patterns linked to relapse, while building motivation and skills for handling high-risk situations.
• Psychiatric nurses and care staff monitor physical and mental health and symptoms during recovery, and support healthy daily routines within the center to prevent relapse.

Day One offers a wide range of recovery activities, designed as part of the treatment process rather than as ways to pass the time. They help residents practice understanding their emotions, managing stress, building problem-solving skills, learning to live alongside others, and gradually rebuilding a balanced daily routine.

The treatment team combines several psychological approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps residents notice and reshape the patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving linked to their substance use; Motivational Interviewing and Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MI & MET), which strengthen motivation for change from within; and the 12-Step Program, which helps residents reflect on and accept the problems caused by substance use, learn a path to recovery, and build a way of life that supports staying substance-free.

In addition, Family Therapy helps restore understanding, communication, and relationships between residents and their families, and helps family members learn how to support recovery in the right way.

These approaches are applied together with recovery activities and adapted to each person, so that change does not happen only in the therapy room but gradually becomes skills that can be used in everyday life, helping residents return to their families and communities on solid ground.
