Straight and Narrow – Detox Medical Hospital

Straight and Narrow – Detox Medical Hospital is a community based residential treatment facility located in Paterson, New Jersey. They are one of the most comprehensive providers of their kind in the nation, with a history of over 60 years of service. This organization’s Detox Medical Hospital is often the first step for men and women who are ready to start recovery from a drug, alcohol or opioid dependence. You’ll find clinical care and will be supported by a compassionate team of medical providers who incorporate both evidence based care and faith based practices into your treatment plan.

This facility operates as a traditional hospital, but it’s a lot smaller so they can provide a more intimate, person focused recovery experience. Detox happens under the supervision of trained stuff, helping ensure your withdrawal symptoms are managed appropriately. Medication may be used to help you work through these symptoms as well.

As a faith based organization, they weave spiritual counseling and guidance into evidence based therapies like medication assisted treatment (MAT) and addiction education. The 12 Steps are used here alongside weekly spiritual groups. Through these groups you’ll be able to connect with other peers and build meaningful relationships in your recovery.
