Step One™
Step One™ is an inpatient medical stabilization and withdrawal management service for adults with drug, alcohol, and related health issues.
Our Step One™ consists of a medically supervised hospital stay for inpatient stabilization that typically lasts 3 to 4 days.
Our inpatient stay includes:

Treatment
Patients who are admitted and under the influence of chemical substances, and are considered medically unstable, will be closely observed and stabilized.
Once the patient has been stabilized, they are discharged from the hospital with a referral to a community based provider to begin treatment of the underlying disease of drug/alcohol addiction
Diagnosis
The diagnosis for inpatient admission can only be made by a licensed physician.
The service accepts most insurance plans.
