Program Overview

Arapahoe House provides three non-medical facilities where persons may safely detoxify from alcohol and other drugs.

During their stay, clients are routinely monitored for withdrawal complications including elevated vitals, tremors, sweats, and other complications. The withdrawal process can be as short as a few hours or as long as several days depending upon the drug used, patterns of use, and withdrawal history of the client.

All clients receive a substance abuse evaluation and are provided referrals to continuing treatment, if needed. Often, staff will provide motivational counseling to those clients who are not yet aware of the severity of their substance use problem or are not yet motivated themselves to stop abusing substances.
