Michigan Alcohol Rehab Centers

Where Can I Find Alcohol Addiction Treatment Centers in Michigan?

Struggling with alcohol abuse and addiction alone is difficult and dangerous. If you or somebody you know is struggling, finding help is an important step in the process of recovery. Thankfully, there are 456 substance abuse treatment centers in Michigan to help you with your struggle, 351 of which are there to help patients struggling exclusively with alcoholism.¹

Treatment center programs vary in intensity. Among them are 403 outpatient, 83 residential, and 10 hospital inpatient facilities.¹

The nearest treatment facility within the American Addiction Centers (AAC) portfolio is AdCare. They offer comprehensive and continuous treatment across several locations in Massachusetts and accept Medicare, Medicaid, and many commercial insurance companies.

AdCare takes a 5 pillar approach to treatment that addresses the biological, psychological, social, emotional, and spiritual. Their multi-pronged approach includes assessment, individual and group sessions, dual diagnosis, crisis intervention and stabilization, 12-step, and discharge planning and placement services. The staff includes experienced physicians, nurse practitioners, counselors, case managers, and placement professionals.

Where Can I Find Medical Detox Centers in Michigan?

In Michigan, there are 240 non-profits, 162 for-profits, and 54 local, state, federal, and tribal government facilities.¹ Depending on how strong your physical dependence is, you can have a mild or a very severe reaction to alcohol withdrawal, with symptoms ranging from mild to potentially deadly. Symptoms include irritability, anxiety, agitation, high blood pressure, raised heart rate, seizures, and delirium tremens and can be fatal.²

Facing withdrawals alone is dangerous for this reason. In a medical detox center you are given medical supervision not only to minimize discomfort but also to treat medical complications that place your health and safety in jeopardy. Medical detox is the process of treating your body medically while it processes and eliminates the alcohol from your system.³ At all hours of the day physicians are available to offer care and manage your health.³

You can find detox facilities throughout Michigan by searching the SAMHSA directory here.

Why Choose American Addiction Centers?

American Addiction Centers (AAC) is a national network of addiction treatment facilities that offer a 90-day promise, quality care, and an alumni support system. With the 90-day promise, facilities are held accountable by offering an additional 30 days of treatment to any patient that suffers from a relapse within 90 days of finishing treatment.

The AAC alumni support system continues to offer support by regularly checking in with prior patients to ensure that their recovery is going well. Alumni also host fun gatherings and events regularly.

State-Funded Insurance (i.e. Medicaid)

In the U.S., there are about 72 million people who are on Medicaid, the federal government healthcare program.⁴ This program is made available to adults who would otherwise struggle to pay for healthcare due to their income, as well as their children, people with certain kinds of disabilities, and the elderly. While it is funded by the government, each individual state administers its own separate Medicaid program.⁴

If you have been turned down for Medicaid in the past and your circumstances haven’t changed, you may still be eligible now. After the Affordable Care Act was passed the rules of admission were loosened to include people with higher incomes and more assets. While not all substance abuse facilities accept Medicaid, there are 321, or 70.4 percent, who accept it in Michigan.¹
