What an Intensive Outpatient Program means

An Intensive Outpatient Program, or IOP, provides structured care while participants continue living in their communities. An overnight setting involves a different level of care from the published outpatient programs. The program is available to adults seeking outpatient support for substance use and mental health concerns.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) does not include housing
Assessment considers your needs, safety, and schedule

Assessment is important because the appropriate level of care varies by person. IOP may be considered alongside PHP, evening IOP, and outpatient therapy. Admissions can explain these options and the next assessment step. River City Recovery does not promise that a particular program will fit before the person's needs, safety, schedule, and ability to participate have been considered.

Clinical and practical support within outpatient care

River City Recovery offers individual therapy, medication management, clinical or medical assessments, medical oversight, drug testing and monitoring, case management, family support, and care coordination. The services used within a person's care depend on assessed needs and treatment planning.

Care can support substance use and mental health needs
Referrals help connect you with outside services

Support can address both addiction and mental health concerns without defining the individual by either condition. Family and practical needs may also affect participation. If an outside service is required, care coordination and referrals can support the next step.
