Medical detox at Bedrock Recovery Center helps reduce the discomfort that you feel during drug or alcohol withdrawal while helping keep you safe from severe symptoms and health complications.
Drug and alcohol dependence are a key reason why many people with substance use disorders can’t stop substance use on their own. In fact, depending on the circumstances, it may not be recommended to stop using the substance “cold turkey.” People with severe or long-term alcohol use disorder, for example, can experience seizures or other life-threatening symptoms when they try to stop drinking without medical supervision.
At Bedrock Recovery Center, our medical experts know what to expect during alcohol and drug detox, making withdrawal safer and much more comfortable and setting you up for further successful treatment to get at the roots of your substance use disorder.
Evaluation And Assessment
Your care at BRC starts with an evaluation and assessment to determine your treatment needs. This includes an initial evaluation of your current withdrawal symptoms to provide the appropriate care.
24/7 Withdrawal Symptom Management
Your care team will continue monitoring you for symptoms and complications due to withdrawal. Your treatment will be tailored to your personal needs and health history.
Your care may include:
- monitoring and testing for mental health conditions that can become apparent during detox
- medications to manage sleep, appetite, anxiety, mood, and more
- intensive treatment for serious side effects such as psychosis, heart or blood pressure problems, or seizures
Access To Licensed Medical Professionals
Bedrock Recovery Center’s compassionate medical care team includes registered nurses, a psychiatrist, nurse practitioners, master’s-level clinicians, and other highly qualified healthcare professionals to ensure your safety and success during withdrawal.
They can help you avoid health complications and severe withdrawal symptoms while increasing your comfort and providing emotional support during what is often a stressful time.
A Home-Like Environment
Our beautiful, state-of-the-art facility in Canton, MA, offers as many of the comforts of home as possible to support your success.
This includes:
- comfortable, beautifully decorated suites
- delicious, nutritious meals (including vegetarian and gluten-free options)
- in-house laundry services
Trauma-Informed Care And Other Specialized Services
Research shows that up to one-third of people entering treatment for addiction have a history of trauma, and the number is most likely much higher. At BRC, treatment from day one is trauma-informed for lasting recovery.
We also tailor our addiction solutions to be:
- culturally sensitive
- gender-specific
- family-centric
- LGBTQ+-friendly
Not every approach is intended for everyone, of course, but through these and other carefully considered approaches, we aim to meet you where you are with compassion and respect.
Transition To Further Treatment
During detox, you’ll begin to build the stability that you need to move on to the next phase of your treatment plan. Withdrawal management alone is not considered full treatment for addiction. At Bedrock Recovery Center, residential treatment is the next step.
