What Is Medical Detox?

Medical detox is an essential first step in addiction treatment. During a medically supervised detox, the body rids drugs and alcohol from its system, which can include uncomfortable or dangerous withdrawal symptoms. Our medical team provides 24/7 supervision and treatment for side effects to make detox as safe and comfortable as possible.

Is medical detox right for me?

Safely stopping drugs or alcohol may require medical detox if any of these apply to you. We’re here to help.

I had an amazing experience at chrv. The counselors, therapists, nurses and bhts are exceptional. I was very blessed to have a very diverse group of clients that got along very well during my stay. The sessions were very interactive among peers and therapists. Nothing was force fed. They encouraged me to think for myself and were very patient with me because honestly I was a lot to handle. The only reason they do not get a five from me is admin left a lot to be desired. Once I was in boarding, I could not get to see the Dr. They even told me I missed a drs appt I didn't know I had, yet was 20 feet away from their office in class. My disability claim was not completed until 6 days from discharge. I have several examples of such incidents but I do not want to take away from what I learned there. The way everyone on the floors, bht's, nurses, therapists and counselors showed absolute care, love and compassion. I would love to send shout outs to all the people that helped in my journey, but there are so many on every level I would be afraid to miss someone. I know there are a lot of choices as far as detox's and rehabs, you would not be disappointed in the care and experience you will get from chrv!!!

Starting my recovery at Cherry Hill turned out to be a better decision than I could have imagined at the time. The staff is top notch and the overall feel is beyond welcoming and comfortable. It was a scary move for me to finally get help. Had I only known a place like this was out there I’d have made the call so much sooner. It is early to say it but I am confident I will talk about The Recovery Village as the place that saved my life. I can only hope that my review will help someone who is in need to not be afraid and pick up the phone. Whatever your addiction may be Cherry Hill can help you turn it all around.

The staff was mostly fantastic. Even when I had an issue with a counselor they did everything they could to make it right. In fact they dealt with any issues I had well. I got a new counselor after and she was awesome. Saved my view of therapy and helped me as much as she could. There’s a few really good counselors at this place. One went out of his way to talk to me privately even though I wasn’t his client. That went a long way and helped me greatly. The nurses all were super helpful, and most of the bht’s and a few in particular were very helpful and just good people. They seem to hire a good amount of people in recovery and having that connection helps a lot as well. But just being a good person helps alot and most of the staff are. Tina at the front desk is amazing. One of the nicest people ever and gave me candy more times than I can count! The kitchen staff were amazing as well. They made good meals every single day 3 times a day. And the rec specialist had new ideas and fun things to do every day. Both directors were super helpful. Fallon helped with any issue presented and tried to listen to the people. But what makes this place 5 stars is the people around you. I didn’t know what to expect going in but it’s just “normal” people. All people just like me. People that understand. You form bonds that you’ll have for a longtime if you’d like. You’re with people who have also been through alot like you have. It definitely helps. The people I was with and became friends with I’ll be grateful for forever.

FAQs About Our Intensive Outpatient Program

How long is medical detox?

The duration of medical detox depends on the substance used, withdrawal symptoms and physical health. Most clients complete medically supervised detox in 5–7 days.

Can I detox at home?

We do not recommend detoxing at home. Withdrawal can be uncomfortable and demotivating, leading to relapse. In particular, alcohol and opioids have withdrawal symptoms that can be fatal without immediate medical attention.

Yes, 24/7 medical supervision ensures a successful drug or alcohol detox. However, medical detox is only the beginning of addiction treatment; you’ll continue with additional treatment and counseling to stay on the path to recovery.

Will I receive methadone, suboxone, etc., during detox?

The Recovery Village Cherry Hill at Cooper offers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) as medically appropriate. Your clinical team will determine your needs and eligibility for MAT.

Insurance may pay for some or all of medical detox. Without insurance, The Recovery Village Cherry Hill at Cooper can discuss private payment options with you.
