About Inpatient Detox
Our medical detox program is designed to provide safe, evidence-based care during the critical first stage of recovery. Upon admission, each client receives a full medical and psychological assessment. We then create a personalized detox plan that may include medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. Licensed nurses and physicians monitor clients 24/7 to ensure comfort and respond immediately to any complications. Our goal is to stabilize each client physically and emotionally so they can safely transition into the next phase of treatment with a strong foundation for recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is medical detox and why is it important?
Medical detox is the first step in recovery for many clients. It provides 24/7 supervision by medical professionals to safely manage withdrawal symptoms. Detox helps stabilize the body and mind, making it easier to transition into therapy and long-term treatment.
What substances require detox before treatment?
We provide detox for alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, methamphetamines, and other substances where withdrawal can be dangerous or uncomfortable. Our team conducts an initial assessment to determine if detox is necessary before entering the main program.
How long does detox take?
Detox typically lasts 3 to 7 days, depending on the substance used, length of use, and individual health factors. During this time, clients receive continuous medical monitoring, symptom relief, and emotional support.
Is detox painful or dangerous?
Withdrawal can be uncomfortable or even risky without medical supervision. That’s why our detox program is clinically managed with appropriate medications and support to reduce discomfort, prevent complications, and keep you safe.
What happens after detox is complete?
After detox, clients transition directly into residential or outpatient treatment. This is a critical step, as detox alone isn’t enough to stay sober. Our integrated care model ensures you receive therapy, education, and relapse prevention tools right away.
