West Pines Behavioral Health Claimed

About West Pines Behavioral Health

West Pines Behavioral Health is a comprehensive behavioral health facility in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, that’s part of the Intermountain Health network. They offer an extensive range of behavioral health care, and that includes addiction treatment as well as mental health and emotional health care. Part of this is their medical detox program.

This facility has inpatient medical detox to help you begin your addiction recovery by clearing your body of drugs and alcohol. The fact that it’s medical detox means that they can monitor for signs of complications and keep you healthy throughout the process. This is especially important for substances that put you at a higher risk to withdraw from, like alcohol and benzos.

You’ll probably be in the detox center here for three to five days. During that time, you’ll also get group therapy and relapse prevention education to help you start building a foundation for healthy and fulfilling sobriety. They have a family education program to help your family understand their role as your support system and to help you and your family heal from the effects of addiction. Along the way, as you’re withdrawing, they can also use medications to give you some relief from withdrawal symptoms.

The client reviews for this treatment center vary a lot. Some clients have frustrations with a lack of communication and not getting calls back when they need to get in touch with the facility or with a patient. At the same time, though, other clients call this a life saving experience and credit this facility and detox center with being part of the reason they’ve been sober for years.
