About West Oaks Hospital
West Oaks Hospital is accredited by The Joint Commission and is a substance use disorder and mental health treatment hospital. Part of their substance use treatment for adults includes an inpatient detoxification program. The facility is located on Hornwood Drive in Houston, Texas. Your payment options include Medicare, Medicaid and insurance from most providers.
The goal of the substance use disorder program is to help you develop the necessary skills so you can lead a lifestyle free from drugs and alcohol. Your program will be individualized to meet your unique needs.
The first step of the program is detoxification to rid your body of the harmful substances you’ve been using. During detox, you’ll be medically supervised 24 hours a day. Medical personnel will assess your needs and make sure you remain medically stable. While you’re in detox, you’ll begin the process of untangling the psychological and emotional aspects of your substance addiction. You’ll do this through therapy and 12-step recovery meetings.
If you’re struggling in the detox program then they offer a drug rehabilitation program that provides a more structured environment to help you stabilize in the process of quitting substances. The program can be used hand in hand with detox or independently of the detox program.
For most people, detox is only the first step on their recovery journey. After detox, you can choose to stay in the inpatient program or move to an outpatient treatment program. There’s also a special program for women that offers gender specific programming so women feel safe.
