Alcohol Use in Worcester County and Massachusetts
The National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics reports that each year in Massachusetts, excessive alcohol use contributes to more than 3,000 deaths on average. According to the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities, in Worcester County alone, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, conditions that are frequently linked to alcohol misuse, account for approximately 120 deaths annually.
Historically, Central Massachusetts has lacked enough private inpatient medical detox programs. These preventable deaths underscore the critical need for comprehensive alcohol use disorder treatment, beginning with medically supervised detox to manage alcohol withdrawal and continuing through ongoing recovery support.
The central part of the state has also lacked sufficient private inpatient medical detox facilities to meet the needs of the area’s communities. However, individuals who are seeking alcohol withdrawal management can find the support they need at Sunrise Detox Millbury.
The Sunrise Detox Process for Alcohol Withdrawal
Our compassionate and individualized approach to withdrawal management begins with a comprehensive assessment by one of our addiction professionals. During the intake process, they will gather information on your medical and mental health, substance use and psychosocial history. From this information, they will work closely with you to develop an individualized treatment plan that meets your needs.
A common component of an individualized treatment plan is alcohol withdrawal management. In many cases, FDA-approved medications such as Librium or Vivitrol are used to ease withdrawal symptoms and curb cravings. These withdrawal management services help you to achieve the physical and emotional stability you need to participate in on-site individual and group counseling and aftercare planning that support long-term recovery.
At our alcohol detox in Worcester County, you’ll find around-the-clock nursing support and physician oversight that ensures you receive close monitoring and rapid intervention should any serious complications of alcohol withdrawal, such as delirium tremens or seizures, occur.
