Medical and Ambulatory Detox Program

We are prepared and qualified to facilitate medically-assisted detox and administer the appropriate medications to prevent severe withdrawal symptoms.

At an appropriate time during the detoxification process, our highly-experienced counselors will perform a thorough assessment and evaluation to determine the best level of treatment for the individual client.

During this phase of treatment, patients are introduced to educational information about the disease of addiction and 12-Step recovery.

Who needs detox?

The following situations may require medically-supervised detox:

  • Prolonged, heavy alcohol abuse
  • Use of opiate-based narcotics
  • Use of pain management medication
  • Long-term use of benzodiazepines
  • Use of some types of sleep medications

Please know: Attempting to detox yourself from alcohol or drugs at home could have dangerous, even fatal, consequences.

Working with a medical detox center and having an expert, experienced medical staff to manage a safe detoxification process is vital to your well-being.
