Fair Oaks Expands Comprehensive Treatment for Californians in Need

In late 2024, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) released its California State of Public Health annual report. Some of the most concerning topics included the following facts:

“Drug overdose was by far the leading cause of years of life lost, and a leading cause of increase in deaths and years lived with disability.”
“Alcohol-related conditions were a leading cause of years of life lost and a leading contributor to racial and ethnic disparities in deaths.”
“Mental health conditions were a leading cause for numbers of hospitalizations and years lived with disability.”

At Fair Oaks Recovery Center in Sacramento, we don’t want anyone to ever feel they don’t have options for healthcare. Our facility is a licensed Chemical Dependency Recovery Hospital—a status issued by the CDPH to addiction rehabilitation and dual diagnosis treatment facilities. It signifies that our board-certified professionals have the capabilities to provide you or a loved one with high-level, inclusive, and compassionate acuity care grounded in evidence-based practices to address and treat substance use disorder (SUD), alcohol use disorder (AUD), mental health disorders, and individuals with multiple substances and co-occurring disorders.

How We Can Help You

At Fair Oaks Recovery Center, we’re committed to providing inclusive, respectful, and personalized care for everyone. We also understand that different populations face unique challenges when it comes to addiction and mental health, and it’s our goal to meet their needs.

Trusted LGBTQIA2S+ Support

Members of this community often face serious barriers to mental health and addiction care, including healthcare discrimination, care equity, and a lack of understanding. Our compassionate team strives to create a welcoming, affirming environment where every person feels seen, heard, and supported with the individualized care they deserve.

Culturally Competent Treatment for Veterans and First Responders

We recognize that military service members and first responders have specialized needs that not all treatment centers are equipped to meet. That’s why we offer Tactical Recovery, a program specifically designed for these special populations. In partnership with the VA Community Care Network and PsychArmor, this professional treatment offers trauma-informed, evidence-based care that respects the culture and experiences of those who serve.

Safe and Effective Detox Services

Many people have a lot of questions about starting treatment, especially the detoxification process. At Fair Oaks, we understand those concerns. That’s why we specialize in medically supervised detox for AUD or SUD to help ease withdrawal symptoms and ensure a safer, more comfortable process. Here are some points to keep in mind:

Detoxification typically lasts 5–7 days, but this timeline varies depending on the person and substances involved.
After detox, most clients continue directly into residential treatment for a smooth transition and stronger long-term results.
We strongly discourage detoxing at home, as it can be dangerous without medical supervision.

A Full Spectrum of Addiction Treatment

At Fair Oaks, we want to support your courageous decision to get help in every way possible. This is why we have a comprehensive level of healing services to provide a source of help, hope, and healing.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

This structured, full-day treatment option is for individuals who need intensive care but don’t require overnight stays. PHP typically runs 5–7 days per week for several hours a day. It includes therapy sessions, medication management, group counseling, and support for co-occurring mental health issues. PHP is ideal for people stepping down from residential treatment or those who need more support than traditional outpatient care can offer.

Residential Treatment

Also known as inpatient rehab, this approach involves living at our facility 24/7. It provides a highly structured and supportive environment with around-the-clock care. Our residents participate in daily therapy, group sessions, life skills training, and wellness activities. This level of care is best suited for people with moderate to severe addiction, individuals who need a break from triggers in their daily environment, or those in early recovery needing intensive support.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

This flexible treatment option allows you or a loved one to live at home while attending therapy several times a week, often in the evenings. IOP includes individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention, and mental health support. It’s designed for people transitioning from higher levels of care (like residential or PHP) or for those who need structured support while maintaining work, school, or family responsibilities.

Dual Diagnosis Care

Fair Oaks also specializes in treatment that addresses both substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. This integrated dual diagnosis approach treats both issues simultaneously, using evidence-based therapies, medication management, and personalized care plans. It’s crucial for lasting recovery, as untreated mental health issues often contribute to relapse or hinder addiction recovery.

If You’re Ready to Heal, Turn to Fair Oaks Recovery Center

We believe in meeting every person with compassion, not judgment. We understand that seeking help for substance use is a courageous step, and we’re here to support you, not dwell on the past.

We take a whole-person approach, treating the mind, body, and spirit. Our program focuses on building healthy, sustainable habits. You’ll learn practical tools to manage cravings, recognize and avoid triggers, prevent relapse, and cope with co-occurring conditions such as anxiety and depression.

Because no two people are the same, we don’t use a one-size-fits-all model. Your treatment plan is customized to meet your specific needs and challenges, whether you’re dealing with addiction alone or a dual diagnosis.

If you’re ready for a new beginning, we’re here to walk beside you. It’s our privilege to support your journey toward healing and lasting recovery. Fair Oaks accepts most private insurance carriers, and payment plans and financial assistance might also be available. Reach out to our admissions team today to learn more.
