Detox program
The detox program at our Addiction Receiving Facility (ARF) helps people across all demographics. Our program provides specialized detox care to ensure a smooth continuum of care including crisis support, community-based care, outpatient treatment and residential programs.
Withdrawal symptoms are the biggest hurdle, making it nearly impossible for anyone to walk away from substance misuse without help from a professional. Our trained providers and comprehensive behavioral health system can be powerful tools in a person’s recovery.
The ARF is a 10-bed facility staffed by addiction specialists, nurses and behavioral health staff. The average length of stay in similar facilities is three to seven days. Upon discharge, individuals are referred to a continuing care program, within Lakeview Center or another community resource, based on individual needs.
