At Wasatch Crest, one of Utah's premier recovery facilities, we understand the significance of providing a supportive and comfortable environment for individuals seeking to break free from addiction. That's why we offer several levels of care, including comprehensive social detox, to help our clients safely and comfortably begin their recovery.
During the social detox program, clients have a secure and monitored setting where they receive care and guidance from our experienced staff and empathetic peers of their same gender.
What is Social Detox?
Social detoxification is a process where individuals detox from alcohol or drugs in a compassionate environment that integrates medical and peer support. The program provides a safe and supervised space for individuals to withdraw from substances while receiving advice from our trained, understanding staff.
Signs You Need Social Detox
It's not always obvious that someone needs help with a substance abuse issue. Here are some signs that you or a loved one could benefit from our social detox program:
- Inability to Control Use: Struggling to cut down or stop using substances despite repeated attempts.
- Withdrawal Symptoms: Experiencing nausea, sweating, tremors, anxiety, or cravings when not using.
- Increased Tolerance: Needing more of a substance to achieve the same effect.
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Failing to meet work, school, or personal obligations.
- Social and Behavioral Changes: Isolating from loved ones, mood swings, or engaging in risky behavior.
- Physical Health Decline: Unexplained weight loss, poor hygiene, or frequent illnesses.
- Loss of Interest: No longer enjoying hobbies or activities once loved.
Benefits of Social Detox
The social detox approach fosters empowerment and resilience. The program promotes long-term recovery and well-being by emphasizing holistic methods, including therapeutic interventions, peer support, and lifestyle changes.
The following are some of the benefits of social detox at Wasatch Crest.
Safe, Healing Environment
Our mountainside centers in the Park City area provide a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere for individuals undergoing detoxification. Surrounded by the alpine landscape, clients can detoxify among peers of the same gender, cultivating a sense of camaraderie and understanding. Under the compassionate guidance of our experienced clinicians, clients receive the care they need in a serene environment that encourages healing and recovery.
Supportive Sober Community
Within a safe, healing space, clients can detox among peers of the same gender and connect with others who understand their unique experiences and challenges. Individuals receive personalized advice tailored to their needs, encouraging fellowship and empowerment throughout their detoxification. This support continues into their treatment and creates a solid foundation for their recovery.
Integrated Approach
We take an all-encompassing approach to detoxification, addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of addiction recovery. During the social detox process, clients have access to therapists and counselors, educational groups, and medical professionals to help them ease any discomfort and begin building the skills they need to maintain sobriety.
Seamless Transition to Additional Levels of Care
Social detox at Wasatch Crest serves as a stepping stone to additional levels of care, including gender-specific residential treatment, co-ed outpatient treatment, and gender-specific transitional living programs.
During detoxification, clients are integrated into their gender-specific residential cohort, ensuring a smooth transition to ongoing care. This integration provides vital sober support during detox and lays the foundation for continued bonds through their treatment. We prioritize a straightforward path toward lasting recovery by fostering connections early on.
What to Expect During Social Detox
During a substance abuse detox program, individuals go through a structured process to safely remove drugs or alcohol from their system. It generally involves these phases:
- Evaluation: Medical professionals assess the individual's substance use history, physical health, and mental well-being.
- Stabilization: Medical supervision helps manage withdrawal symptoms. Medications may be used to ease symptoms and prevent complications. Emotional support is also provided to help individuals cope with cravings and anxiety.
Detox can last a few days to a week. It varies based on the substance and severity of the person's dependence. Throughout the process, staff monitor progress and ensure safety.
