Frequently Asked Questions

A Professional Perspective on Detox

Detoxification is one of the most misunderstood steps in the recovery process. Many people searching for help believe that getting through withdrawal is the hardest part, that once the substance is out of the body, the real work is done. Research consistently shows otherwise, that what happens after detox matters far more than detox itself, and that the transition into ongoing treatment is where outcomes are actually determined.

“However, detoxification does not serve as standalone care for substance dependence. Rather, detoxification should function as an entry point to addiction treatment. Successful transitions from detoxification to addiction treatment are well-known to benefit outcomes such as reduced relapse, criminal justice system involvement, and crisis-related health care utilization, and increased employment and stable housing.”

What this means if you are searching for detox

Getting through detox is a real accomplishment and a necessary first step; but it is the beginning of the process, not the finish line. If you are looking for a detox program for yourself or someone you love, the most important question to ask is: what comes next? A program that sends someone home without a clear next step is leaving them vulnerable without a plan.
