Stepworks of Elizabethtown Woodland Drive Facility

If you live in Elizabethtown, Kentucky then you can access Stepworks of Elizabethtown Woodland Drive Facility for alcohol and drug rehab services. The services they offer are the detox and residential program, the short stay detox service, and the PICC Line Program. Your family members can also receive education on addiction to know how to better support you.

Given that clients can experience uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous withdrawal symptoms, the staff wants to help you detox as safely as possible. They will follow medical detox protocols to determine when it’s necessary to administer medication. The facility uses buprenorphine to reduce your symptoms and cravings.

You have the option of doing a short stay detox or moving on to residential treatment after your detox is completed. If you’re detoxing from alcohol then you’ll stay between five to seven days, and if you’re detoxing from opiates your treatment will take between 11 to 13 days. It’s important to keep in mind that your length of time may vary.

The PICC line program is a unique service that provides 30 day residential drug treatment for individuals who are currently receiving antibiotics. Drug related bacterial infections often occur in individuals who inject substances into their bloodstream. Repeated needle use increases the risk of disease severity and complication, which is why Stepworks believes it’s important to have a program that treats both addiction and bacterial infections.

One nice thing about this facility is it’s only an hour away from various activities and attractions you can start enjoying in Louisville. One option you can consider doing is learning some fascinating history at the Kentucky Derby Museum.
