Here, you’ll find helpful answers to some of the most common questions we receive about our detox and rehab program serving the five boroughs. Our goal is to ensure this process is as clear and stress-free as possible.
Anytime substance use has begun to consume and impede a person’s schedule, finances, relationships, professional or academic progress, or identity. Medically monitored detox in NYC is the first step to treating an addiction to a detrimental substance.
Our team of qualified and experienced physicians will make custom recommendations for the best course of treatment for each patient. After a detailed evaluation, we will collaborate with the primary care provider and ensure the most effective level of care is received.
NYC medically supervised detox is the safest way to navigate the symptoms of withdrawal while cleansing the body of harmful substances, such as opiates, heroin, alcohol, methamphetamine, crack, Benzos, or other prescription or illicit drugs.
Our attending physicians will prescribe evidence-based medications to ease the acute symptoms of withdrawal while our clinical and support staff keep patients as comfortable as possible from the time they walk in until they’re ready to go home.
This largely depends on each patient’s individual needs and insurance coverage. Our support staff will expertly walk through the cost and payment process with each patient or family after a consultation. Ascendant accepts both private-pay as well as most insurance carriers as an out-of-network provider.
As an inpatient medically monitored detox in NYC, Ascendant always staffs two registered nurses at our facility at all times, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We pride ourselves on providing customized care and treatment for each patient occupying one of our luxurious and peaceful rooms. With the ability to admit up to 18 patients, our nurse-to-patient ratio is never more than 1:9.
On average, the typical stay at Ascendant is 7 days. During their stay, patients will receive relief from uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms through proven and reliable medications and holistic therapeutic treatments.
We like to think of our facility as a sanctuary. Somewhere people go to heal, recover, and rest. Our NYC detox and rehab center offers a serene and tranquil setting right in the heart of the city.
Our patients can take advantage of private or double rooms as well as shared lounge areas for socializing, entertainment, and a change of pace. All consultations and therapy sessions are held in private rooms, as are all group classes.
Unfortunately, simply ridding the body of harmful toxins isn’t enough for many of our patients to achieve long-term wellness and sobriety. An aftercare plan will be in development the moment a patient is admitted to our facility. This will include outpatient care, ongoing therapy, and prescription management in collaboration with primary care providers.
Our NYC detox facility can comfortably accommodate up to 18 patients at any given time. Our luxurious and serene setting has been carefully curated and designed to provide the highest level of comfort without being crowded while experiencing withdrawal symptoms associated with detox.
At Ascendant, our philosophy is that lasting recovery is most successful when attempted under the care of experienced addiction professionals and fostered by a compassionate team. Through the application of industry-leading medication management and holistic therapeutic modalities, we’ve seen our philosophy proven time and time again.
