Facility and Meals
The detox unit at Roger Williams is equipped with 15 beds, and another 12 beds for individuals in treatment for co-occurring disorders. There are both private and semi-private rooms, with never more than two to a room. The program is structured to protect the safety of the client and ensure their complete attention on their recovery. To this end, clients are not permitted cell phones or personal laptops during the detox phase of treatment.
Meals are made-to-order and delivered to the room at specific times. Clients choose from a menu of healthy foods following a balanced diet. Meals may include sugar but never caffeine.
Treatment Protocol and Team
Based on an intake assessment by an interdisciplinary team of physicians and counselors, clients are provided a personalized treatment plan designed specifically to meet the mental, emotional and physical components of their detox. The facility offers both medically-assisted and non-assisted detox options, and the typical length of stay is between three and seven days. Suboxone is available for those individuals experiencing opioid withdrawal. During this phase, clients can expect individual and group therapy guided by mental health professionals. In addition, the unit offers 12-step groups on-site that clients are encouraged to participate in.
PHP is offered for clients that have completed the detox phase. Running 45 days long at five days a week and five hours a day, PHP is an intensive process. The program provides clients with the medical support they need while they continue therapy like individual and group therapy, disease and recovery classes as well as 12-step.

Summary
