West Hollywood Alcohol Detox Center
For alcohol detox in West Hollywood, you should consider Muse Treatment. We know that every person has different needs when treating alcohol addiction, and so we get to know you as a person so we can customize a treatment program that will best suit you. We will take your physical and mental health needs into account, along with your preferences, your budget, your beliefs, and your goals for the future.
The first step in any treatment program is detox, and at Muse Treatment, we have a detox center that you can check into, complete your detox program, and then move directly into rehab. We make the transition as seamless as possible so you can quickly move through our continuum of care, gain the skills and tools you need to live independently, and then get back to your life as soon as possible.
Alcohol is a popular drug in our society and is a widespread addiction. Through our thorough screening process, our treatment team can determine your level of addiction and prescribe appropriate treatments that will ensure you remain healthy and safe as you detox from alcohol.
What Is Alcohol Detox at Muse Like?
When you enter our detox program, you will first need to have a medical and a psychiatric screening. These will help us ensure you are in good enough health to go through a complete detox right away. It will also help us determine your level of addiction so that we can choose the appropriate treatments for your physical and mental health, including medical care and dual diagnosis treatments.
We will then interview you, knowing what you hope to get out of your time with us. It is strongly recommended to move directly from detox into a rehab program to go over your goals for the future and help you choose a path that will work best for your unique situation.
After our intake interview, you will move into our alcohol detox in West Hollywood facility, where you will live as your body goes through the detox process. We will be there 24 hours a day, so if anything comes up at any time, or if you just need to talk, we will be there. Medications and therapy are provided when necessary to ensure you are as comfortable and safe as you can be. Once you are through your detox period (usually five to ten days), we will continue to your next phase of treatment, an inpatient or outpatient rehab program.
Common Side Effects of Alcohol Withdrawal
The most common side effects of alcohol withdrawal include:
- Anxiety and mood swings
- Tremors
- Uncontrollable sweating
- Confusion or brain fog
- Irritability
- Nightmares
- Difficulty sleeping
- Headache
- Increased heart rate
They can escalate to delirium tremens, a series of symptoms otherwise known as “the DTs,” which may include:
- Confusion and agitation
- High fever
- Visual, audio, and tactile hallucinations
- Light and sound sensitivity
- Heart problems
- Seizures
If untreated, these symptoms can lead to death. Some factors that may affect your risk of developing the DTS include drinking very heavily or binge drinking, as well as mixing alcohol with other drugs, having a history of DTs or seizures, and having coexisting health conditions.
MAT for Alcohol Detox West Hollywood
A Medically Assisted Treatment program for alcohol detox in West Hollywood is the safest and most effective means of detoxing. With the use of FDA-approved prescription medications, behavioral therapy, counseling, and dual diagnosis treatments, we can help you with alcohol cravings to ensure you get enough rest. We can also help you deal with any pain or discomfort while treating psychological issues like trauma and anxiety at the same time.
Dual Diagnosis Treatment Including Alcohol Addiction
Dual diagnosis treatment is the treatment of co-occurring mental health conditions simultaneously as we treat addiction. This is beneficial timing, as the two issues are usually connected and may even stem from the same underlying problems. Treating both at the same time will prevent them from masking symptoms or making the other issue worse. It will allow you to move forward in your treatment with all health issues in check.
How to Get Help for A Loved One With an Alcohol Addiction
You want the best for your loved ones and will do anything to help them as they are going through this difficult time. As difficult as it may be, one of the most caring things you can do for somebody struggling with alcohol addiction is to avoid enabling their behavior. Enabling can look like this:
- Buying alcohol for them or drinking with them
- Allowing them to exploit you and others financially or emotionally
- Making excuses or blaming others for their behavior
- Allowing them to break the boundaries you have set
- Protecting them from facing the consequences of their own actions
Helping your loved ones get into a detox and rehabilitation program is responsible for ensuring they get the long-term help they need. Some things to look for in an alcohol detox and rehabilitation program include:
- A medical detox program that integrates prescription medications, medical care and oversight, and psychiatric care to ensure they remain safe and healthy on all fronts.
- The option for dual diagnosis treatments, if necessary, to take care of their mental health alongside the addiction. Treating both at the same time will help break the cycle of addiction and will ensure your loved one can move on in life with their physical and mental health under control.
- A highly trained, experienced, and professional team on staff.
At Muse Treatment, our staff is highly trained and experienced. There is a 24-hour clinical nursing staff, with a nurse practitioner on-site daily, and the head nurse is a certified addiction RN. Experienced professionals administer all care. Each person’s treatment plan is tailored to their individual needs and can include dial diagnoses, focusing on goals, budget, and personal needs. There are multiple payment options, including payment plans, and we take most insurance.
We will ensure your loved one remains safe, comfortable and gets the most out of their time with us through a customized, integrated treatment program that works. We will take care of them while working to ensure they are ready to take responsibility for their actions and have the full support they need to remain sober for the long run.
Alcohol Rehab in West Hollywood
Rehab can take many forms at Muse Treatment; we offer inpatient and outpatient care, with customized programming for each of our Muse Treatments.
In inpatient rehab, you move into our facility, usually for 30 to 90 days, living in our serene and comfortable facility and attending therapy, groups, and other programs for approximately six hours per day. The days are structured so you will always know what you are supposed to be doing, and your individualized programming will ensure all of your rehab needs are met. Muse Treatment has healthy and fresh food, exercise equipment, games and movies, and access to our offsite outings to local attractions and nature. The rooms are home-like and comfortable with full-sized beds and TVs.
In outpatient rehab, we have a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP):
- The PHP is a day program where you live with us part-time, attending full days of programming up to six days per week. It is an intensive, structured program with strong support for people with a high risk of relapse or people who are dealing with a co-occurring condition.
- In IOP, you will have flexible treatments that do not require you to be on-site for full days. You can schedule your appointments around your responsibilities at home, like work and family, while still proactively working with our professionals in rehab.
Ongoing Support and Recovery After Alcohol Addiction Treatment
Outpatient programs are an excellent way to transition from an inpatient program or day program back into your everyday life with full. This provides continued support and a sustained connection to a sober community, and you can taper down your attendance as you become more comfortable in your recovery.
At Muse Treatment, we offer continued care as long as you want it at our alcohol detox in West Hollywood. This includes the option to schedule one-on-one therapy appointments and attend groups whenever you need it, connections to our sober community, and continued access to medical and psychiatric care.
