Providing a higher level of patient care

Along with its traditional Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) services, New Season offers an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) to help individuals with substance use disorders who are seeking a less restrictive level of care than inpatient programs or are taking preventative measures to avoid more extensive services, like hospitalization. With more hours dedicated to therapy – including individual, group, and family education counseling – we’re able to better help patients heal their body, mind, and spirit so they can achieve long-term recovery success.

In addition to heightened counseling, New Season’s Intensive Outpatient Program consists of education regarding substance-related and mental health stressors. Although specifics are tailored to each patient, the program focuses on the following areas to create a well-rounded treatment plan:

  • Wellness Education – designed to assist the patient in achieving balance in physical and emotional health and well-being.
  • Recovery Education – includes activities designed to provide information about the person’s disability/disorder, focusing on achieving the highest possible personal functioning and
    improving the person’s social and occupational interactions.
  • Resiliency Education – focused on enhancing awareness of the person’s strengths and
    building on those strengths.
  • Family Education Counseling – weekly sessions to address familial issues stemming from
    behaviors associated with substance use disorder and how to minimize their impact on these
    relationships and beyond.

What's the difference between MAT and IOP?

While Medication Assisted Treatment programs and Intensive Outpatient Programs both involve counseling as part of treatment, IOPs consist of more therapy hours, different types of therapy (Individual, Group, and Family) and an emphasis on mental health, including crisis intervention.

Where IOP Falls on the Continuum of Care

An Intensive Outpatient Program is more rigorous than standard outpatient care, but allows for the patient to continue day-to-day life in a way that inpatient programs do not. IOPs are considered an intermediate level of care that can serve as an entry point into substance abuse treatment, a step-down level of care, or a step-up level of care – it all depends on the patient, and what they need.
