Don’t start alcohol or drug withdrawal alone. Going to a medical detox at our facility ensures withdrawal is as safe, comfortable and successful as possible.
Medical detox is a fundamental first step in addiction treatment. During a medically supervised detox, the body removes drugs and alcohol from its system, which can involve uncomfortable or dangerous withdrawal symptoms. Our medical team provides 24/7 supervision and treatment for symptoms to make detox as safe and comfortable as possible.
If any of this applies to you, a medical detox may be necessary to stop drug or alcohol use safely.
Before medical detox starts, we evaluate each patient’s drug and alcohol consumption, as well as their physical and mental well-being, including any co-occurring disorders. This assessment helps us develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
