What To Expect When Entering Treatment

We’re happy to hear from you! Our friendly administrative team is here to help you from day one until your treatment is complete. We prioritize hearing stories and challenges over pushing treatment plans.

When you or a loved one makes that first call, we’ll discuss the patient’s specific disorder and history in order to determine the severity of their current state. For their safety and to ensure Alpas Wellness is a good fit, the patient must disclose any pre-existing medical conditions or co-occurring disorders.

We will also discuss insurance plans and coverage. Alpas Wellness operates as an in-network treatment center for most major carriers. We will work with you to help you understand exactly what’s available to you according to your carrier.

If you or a loved one are struggling with a Dual Diagnosis or Substance Use Disorder, don’t wait until it’s too late. The first step is the most critical.

These disorders can often lead to damaged physical and mental health, compromised personal finances, and jeopardized or broken relationships. Take action today and choose the path to restoration, freedom, and healing.

After we’ve determined that Alpas Wellness can help facilitate your recovery and insurance coverage has been arranged, you will be given an arrival date and time for check-in. We will offer guidance for notifying your family, friends, employers, or teachers.

Our modern facility was fashioned with Biophilic Design principles. With an abundance of light, plant life, and nature in every corner, our location is the perfect space for rest, reflection, and recovery.

Depending on the disorder being treated, the patient will be assigned to a unit specifically built, organized, and staffed to treat that disorder. Each unit has a shared lounge area, private and shared rooms, as well as a designated nurses station and medical exam space. There are always three to four nurses available per unit, with a maximum of eighteen patients per unit.

There is a physician on-site at Alpas Wellness at all times, and each floor staffs four therapists. Their offices are where private therapy and counseling sessions will be held, with separate common rooms for group sessions.

After the patient is admitted, they will undergo a diagnostic evaluation that covers everything from medical history, substance use, and mental health to daily routine and recovery goals. Lab work may also be necessary, depending on the results of the evaluation.

Based on this evaluation, a customized treatment plan will be developed to suit the patient’s needs and desires. This plan will encompass everything from detox and inpatient care to outpatient programs and aftercare plans.

For those suffering from severe Substance Use Disorder, medication-assisted detox may be the first phase of your recovery. Here, the patient will receive IV and oral medications to ease the transition into sobriety.

Some medications will serve to accelerate the toxin release, while others will be to mitigate the symptoms of withdrawal and ensure patient comfort. The medical detox process is overseen by our in-house medical team.
