Adult Detox Services near El Cajon
One of this organization’s 24 programs is the adult detox program. It represents just one phase of its full spectrum addiction treatment services. Built from over 40 years of experience treating individuals struggling with substance abuse, care is tailored to meet participants’ unique needs and preferences.
The adult program is specifically located in Lemon Grove. It’s just a short drive from El Cajon. Participants can benefit from short-term residential, non-medical detox services. These are available to men and women. Participants can expect to go through this process for anywhere between 2-14 days while enjoying a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment.
Speaking of supportive environments, one non-medical therapy is actually offsite. Mission Trails Regional Park is within driving distance and can be a good fit if you want to stretch your legs and unwind a bit between sessions.
Anyway, back to the center. After going through an assessment process, clients can expect treatment planning, and community referrals. For those who may benefit, staff can connect individuals to medication assisted treatment (MAT) services. Participants will also engage in addiction education, and be introduced to 12 Step recovery principles.
