THE ADDICTION EPIDEMIC IN AMERICA

We are on a mission to help make a difference in the total rates of addiction recovery in Kentucky & beyond.

Addiction is something that wraps you up tight, enveloping the whole of the person eventually. It comes to dictate the terms of every day. A mental illness that rewires the mind and shapes the goals of what a user aims for.

The menace, or even plague, of substance abuse, knows no bounds, afflicting those of all walks of life. Old, young, men, women, rich and poor.

The numbers speak for themselves in that regard.
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 14.1 million adults, aged 18 and older had an alcohol use disorder. Alcohol is the third, the 3rd, leading preventable cause of death in the United States with roughly 95,000 people dying annually from alcohol-related causes.

Drug abuse is equally vexing, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noting, in 2017, that over 11% of people aged 12 and over have used an illicit drug in the past month. Between 1999 and 2018, more than 750,000 Americans died from drug overdoses. A quarter of a million people, gone.

Families missing sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters.
Although the value of life itself is always at the forefront, there is a stark economic cost to substance abuse.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse calculated that the combined abuse of alcohol, illicit drugs, and tobacco costs more than $740 billion, with a “B”, every year as it relates to crime, lost work productivity, and health care.

Truly astounding.

But that’s the macro picture, each person and family deals with addiction on the micro level. Learning, and then taking, the necessary steps to get on the road to recovery.
Before any of that can happen though, the most imperative thing is to get you off the substances.

We believe everyone has the ability to recover from addiction.

Our drug and alcohol rehab in KY is on a mission to truly make a lasting impact on those affected by the disease of addiction in Kentucky, and beyond.

I HIGHLY recommend allowing RAC to provide the care and tools for your lifelong sobriety. I love every individual there for giving me a new lease on life!

I absolutely LOVED RAC, and all of the staff. I was absolutely terrified to go to rehab. But it has been such a warm and welcoming experience. Starting with my detox, all of the staff and nurses made sure of it my needs were met. The ARPN has been a God send. She makes sure you're comfortable. I would recommend RAC to anyone who is ready to get the help they so much deserve.

THE IMPORTANCE OF DETOXIFICATION

What is Detoxification?​

After taking the monumental and praiseworthy step of recognizing you need help, the first order of business is detoxification.

Plainly speaking, what it means in practice is the process of ridding the body of toxins. It allows the body to metabolize whatever drugs or alcohol are still in the system and get you physically stable to start your recovery program.

Depending on the severity of the addiction, and to which substance, a medically assisted detox may be necessary to help with withdrawal and work to reduce the cravings.

Subutex, for example, is often used for those struggling with opioid addiction.

Similarly, severe alcohol withdrawal in the form of delirium tremens could call for medication and in that case, it can literally be lifesaving.

Regardless of the substance of choice and whether or not the medication is needed, going through detox in a controlled and safe environment, under the supervision and guidance of professionals who understand what you’re going through can help ease the burden tremendously.

Our medical detox center in Kentucky at Robert Alexander Center for Recovery is rooted in creating an atmosphere of comfort that inspires calm as you work through a tough part of your journey to sobriety.

FIND THE HELP YOU NEED

Our Medical Detox Center in Kentucky​

It sounds obvious, but it is worth stating, getting sober requires getting sober, and in order to get there we need to rid the body of all those substances that are holding us back.

The Kentucky medical detox center we operate is squarely focused on putting your mind, as well as the minds of your family and friends, at ease with the process. Communication is key in that regard and we strive for it to be crystal clear at all times.

Since detox is ultimately just one of the very first steps toward recovery, establishing that trust is of paramount importance to the rest of the process. In fact, it’s the foundation upon which we build your recovery program. Because after detox and once the withdrawal symptoms subside, is when addiction treatment in Kentucky really begins.

Getting over the hill of detoxification is what sets you up for a fruitful recovery.

BEGIN YOUR JOURNEY TO LASTING RECOVERY

Rebuilding starts with a clean slate. A clean slate, in this case, refers to the idea that you can’t go forward with treatment without first getting all the substances out of your body. You can’t dig into the mental aspects of addiction, the real meat of the matter, without first tackling the physical dependency.
The mind follows where the body leads in that sense.

Addiction detox in Kentucky at our drug & alcohol rehab in Kentucky offers just that, a place to begin the journey. Give us a call and let’s start the healing together.
