Frequently Asked

Common Questions

What is the difference between detox and rehab?

Detox is the medically supervised process of clearing substances from the body — typically lasting 3–10 days depending on the substance. Rehabilitation is the longer-term therapeutic work that follows detox, addressing the behavioral and psychological dimensions of addiction. Detox is often the necessary first step before entering a rehabilitation program.

How do I know if detox is necessary

If you or someone you know has been using substances regularly for an extended period, attempting to stop without medical supervision can be dangerous — particularly with alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids. A confidential consultation with our team can help you assess the appropriate level of care.

Is detox covered by insurance?

Many private insurance plans cover medically necessary detoxification services. Coverage varies by policy, provider, and level of care. Our admissions team can verify your benefits confidentially and explain exactly what your plan covers before you make any decisions.

Can I detox at home?

For certain substances and lower levels of dependence, supervised outpatient detox may be an option. However, withdrawal from alcohol, benzodiazepines, and some opioids can involve serious medical complications including seizures. A physician-supervised setting is strongly recommended for these substances and any moderate-to-severe dependency.

How quickly can someone be admitted?

In many cases, same-day or next-day admission is possible. Our admissions coordinators are available around the clock to assess your situation, verify insurance, and coordinate all logistics. When you're ready, we move as quickly as you need us to.
