Detoxification services provide medical supervision during the critical withdrawal phase, ensuring safety and comfort as the body adjusts. Hospitalization and inpatient care are available for individuals requiring intensive medical and psychiatric support, while partial hospitalization or day treatment programs allow patients to receive structured treatment while maintaining some connection to their home environment. The center also provides residential short-term treatment (30 days or less) and residential long-term treatment (30 days or more) for those needing extended, immersive recovery support.

The Department of Veteran Affairs accepts private health insurance and military insurance (VA and TRICARE), making treatment accessible to eligible veterans and service members. Many insurance plans cover addiction treatment services under the Mental Health Parity Act, which requires equal coverage for mental health and substance use disorders as other medical conditions. If cost or insurance verification is a concern, the facility can work with you to explore all available payment options and ensure financial barriers do not prevent you from receiving care.
