Choosing the appropriate detoxification services depends on a variety of factors including the types and amount of drugs or alcohol you have been using, length of abuse, and your age and medical history. One thing is universal, however; to ensure a healthy foundation for recovery the quality of detoxification services is critical.

Rapid Detox Referral is intended to serve as a centralized informational resource whose mission is to help consumers find appropriate, qualified, and certified detoxification services.

Our staff is composed of experienced professionals who have worked in the drug and alcohol addiction field for decades and have kept themselves abreast of opiate dependencies and their treatments. Along with our background, and our expertise in addiction and chemical dependency treatment, our hope is to assist consumers in finding an appropriate detoxification program based on a patient's individual and specific needs.

Additionally, as healthcare professionals we understand that not everyone who comes to us for help falls into the category of 'drug addict' or 'drug abuser.' While our history has certainly involved treating men and women suffering from addiction to heroin, or other street-available opiates, several clients arrive here who have become dependent upon opiate-based drugs and medications administered as a result of injuries, chronic pain conditions, and cancer.
