How to Find a Safe & Effective Drug Detox
Need detox but not sure where to start? Read below to learn more, or call our expert recovery team for help. We’ll assist you in walking through the process.
Step 1: Ensure You Choose a Quality Detox Program
Making a list of requirements for the right drug detox program is a critical first step toward addiction recovery. It’s important to find a program that meets your or a loved one’s specific needs, and offers safe, evidence-based treatment.
Here’s a list of the first things you should look for when choosing a detox program:
- Proper licensing & accreditations
- Experienced & credentialed staff
- 24/7 clinical supervision
- Thorough assessments & custom treatment plans
- Comfortable & safe environment
- Positive reviews
- Aftercare planning & support
Step 2: Narrow Down Your Choices
Once you’ve confirmed that the programs you’re interested in offer quality care and facilities, the next step is to make sure it’s the right fit for you or your loved one.
Some things to consider might be:
- Do I want to leave my city for treatment?: Studies show outcomes are better for those who relocate, but some people prefer to stay close to their support system.
- Do I want a luxury experience?: Many people opt for more upscale detox programs because they’re more comfortable & safe during withdrawal symptoms. Insurance will cover these programs, so it’s a popular option. However for some, cost may be a consideration.
- Do I want it to be pet-friendly?: Some detox programs offer pet-friendly accommodations which can be wonderful for those with furry friends, however you may be allergic and need a non-pet-friendly environment.
- Do I want holistic programs?: Many people going through detox benefit from supplemental holistic programs like yoga, breathwork, and reiki. You may prefer a program that offers these supportive therapies.
Step 3: Look for Red Flags
While there are many excellent addiction treatment programs out there, there are unfortunately also some not-so-great ones as well. Make sure you do your due diligence to cross off any detox programs from your list that have any red flags.
If you find any of these issues with a program, it’s a good idea to cross them off your list:
- Programs that promise “quick fixes” or unproven methods
- Lack of proper accreditations
- Facilities that lack medical oversight for withdrawal management
- A lack of transparency about costs or treatment methods
- High-pressure sales tactics or exploitative practices
- Poor or nonexistent aftercare planning
- Negative reviews or a bad reputation
Step 4: Verify Your Insurance Coverage
While some people opt to pay out of pocket, insurance will usually cover up to 100% of addiction treatment costs. However, not all insurance providers work with every addiction recovery program. Make sure you contact the facilities you’ve narrowed down your choices to and check to see if they work with your insurance.

This is the best treatment center I've been to.
Groups are long but very informative and helpful. The staff cares about you and not just your money which has been my experience in the past with other treatment centers. It’s the first time I’ve felt safe and cared for in my recovery. Highly recommend this place.
Loman F.
The best experience of my life.
Chase, Kolby, and the whole team here are super supportive. I see TJ on a weekly basis checking in on the people that he helps get sober. If it wasn’t for Renaissance I wouldn’t be able to be a father and start my own journey of getting to be the man I’ve always wanted to be.

Definitely top-notch all the way!
My experience at Renaissance was truly a positive one. The treatment itself is absolutely amazing. The counselors & case managers are more than qualified in all areas and care about every client personally and individually. I would recommend it to anyone struggling with addiction or mental health issues.

Best rehab I’ve ever been to.
The staff really cares about us and are always willing to help. I’m upset it took me so long to find them. The house managers are really helpful. This place really helped me get on my feet and stay sober. Even after I graduated I still felt like I was part of the family I’ve built strong bonds with a lot of people in the program; I highly recommend them.
