What to Expect: All In Solutions Wellness Center

A typical day at All In Solutions Wellness Center starts around 7:30 a.m. with behavioral health technicians visiting each client in their rooms and checking their vital signs. Clients then go to the nurses’ station, where they are given their medication (if needed) and are evaluated on their comfort, appetite, and sleep quality. As clients are finishing up with nursing, breakfast service starts. Clients can choose between the hot breakfast option prepared by the onsite kitchen staff or cold options like cereal, muffins, bagels, yogurt, and fresh fruit. 

After breakfast, most mornings, there will be a brief community meeting and a short meditation period. At 10 a.m., the first group therapy session begins. These sessions are facilitated by one of the primary therapists. The topic or focus of the group is different every day, so clients are not doing the same activities repeatedly. At noon, this session ends, and lunch is served. Like breakfast, hot and cold options are available, and any special dietary restrictions can be accommodated. 

Group therapy resumes for another session at 1 p.m. Clients are excused from their scheduled activities throughout the day to go to one-on-one sessions with their therapist, meet with case managers, and receive additional medical care as needed. From 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., clients have time to participate in recreational activities or receive services from a visiting chiropractor, massage therapist, acupuncturist, or yoga instructor. Dinner is then served between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.

After dinner, the nurses check in with clients again and give medications when necessary. From 7 p.m. to 8 p.m., volunteers from Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Cocaine Anonymous, and other recovery groups host a meeting for clients. For the rest of the night, clients are free to make phone calls to loved ones, work on assignments from their therapists, and relax. Nurses distribute medications from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m., and clients are in bed for lights out at 10:30 p.m. 

Overnight, behavioral health technicians are available to help clients with any problems they may face, and nurses are available to prescribe medications to help with withdrawal symptoms. The cafeteria is also open overnight and is stocked with snacks and drinks.
