About Recovery Centers of America Capital Region

Recovery Centers of America has many locations, including one right outside the Capital Beltway on Billingsley Road in Waldorf, Maryland. They treat substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. You can go to inpatient and outpatient treatments, and they have an inpatient medical detox program that lasts usually between 20-35 days.

The programs accept most major insurance carriers as an in network provider. They’ll also work with your insurance if you’re out of network.

The detox program lasts 5-7 days and is medically supervised around the clock. During detox, you can experience uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms such as gastric distress, nausea, vomiting, and insomnia. During detox, they’ll give you medications to help ease any of these withdrawal symptoms.

Everyone’s detox is different, depending on the substances you’ve been using and how long you’ve been using them. Some people only need a few days while others may take a week or longer to detox. Detox is an important first step because this is where you’ll break your body’s physical dependence on the substances. Detox builds a strong foundation for your sober journey.

While in detox, you’ll also start group and individual therapy. You and your treatment team will work on identifying any co-occurring mental health disorders you may have. A co-occurring disorder is a mental health issue like depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder. If appropriate, you’ll get medication management for co-occurring disorders.

There are also some nice amenities at the facility. There’s a recreational center and gym with a fitness instructor. You can take advantage of cooking classes where you’ll learn about proper nutrition. There’s a wellness spa onsite, and you can attend recovery music and creative arts programs. They’re also pretty close to Virginia and Washington D.C., and outdoor excursions may be possible.

For most people, detox is the first step in their inpatient treatment program. They also have outpatient programs if you can’t commit to the full inpatient program. The outpatient programs are also a great step down for continued support after completing the inpatient program.
