  • Summary

    Not all people require inpatient or residential treatment for an opioid use disorder. Instead, outpatient treatment may be appropriate for certain individuals, but must consider the person’s health, motivation, support system, and financial status. partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs are two outpatient treatment plans that involve regular programming and individual treatment over several weeks, whereas group and individual therapy might occur less frequently. Mutual support groups, for example 12-step groups such as Narcotics Anonymous, can be very helpful for those looking for peer support. Most recently, treatment methods such as biofeedback, acupuncture, telemedicine, and virtual reality have garnered attention as potential methods to enhance recovery from opioid use disorder.
