Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

aftercare iconAftercare

Rehab aftercare programs are based on a model of continuing care and the premise that recovery is a life-long process requiring ongoing client support. Many rehab aftercare services include outpatient care, but clients often continue to receive support after being discharged from formal treatment. Case managers and care teams typically collaborate with clients to design their long-term care plan, which may include peer coaching, career counseling, and 12 step program induction, among other services.

12-step icon12-Step

12 step programs promote participants' sustained sobriety through rigorous and ongoing peer coaching and personal spiritual growth. Participants routinely attend 12 step meetings, which are available multiple times per day, 365 days per year in most communities. This ensures that those in recovery have prompt access to the structure and support they need when they need it. These programs use spiritual precepts to address the root causes of addiction and encourage compassion, self-awareness, forgiveness, accountability, and acceptance.

heart-hands iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need

24-hour icon24-Hour Clinical Care

24-hour clinical care in Texas provides a safe environment for medical detox. This setting is crucial to provide medical care during withdrawal. Certain withdrawal symptoms can cause life-threatening conditions, but patients in a supervised clinical setting have treatment readily available to address any symptoms before they become severe. Treatment can also be provided for co-occurring physical and mental health issues.

medically-assisted-detox iconMedically Assisted Detox

Drug and alcohol addiction often takes a heavy toll on one's body. Over time, a physical dependence can develop, meaning the body physiologically needs the substance to function. Detox is the process of removing drugs and/or alcohol from the body, a process that can be lethal if mismanaged. Medical detox is done by licensed medical professionals who monitor vital signs and keep you safe, healthy, and as comfortable as possible as you go through detox and withdrawal. The length of stay at the detoxification program is determined according to the specific needs of the patient.

Briarwood definitely surpassed my expectations. I've been to a detox facility before, unfortunately, so I can honestly say I wasn't looking forward to having to go through the process again.But, it was seamless. I was well taken care of. I truly thought that the staff cared about me and my well being from beginning to end. The facility was clean and the food was good. I was extremely comfortable and the atmosphere was laid back and conducive to my recovery.I'm coming up on 60 days sober and I don't think I'd even be alive right now if it weren't for this place.

September 19th of 2017 I checked into Briarwood after another failed attempt to handle my substance abuse issue on my own. It was a great place to start my recovery journey and I m so grateful because thanks to their help, that was the last day I used or drank. Unlike some other detoxes, this is not a hospital setting, but they still have nurses there available all the time. So it felt more comfortable (as comfortable as detox can be). The staff were all very attentive and kind. Counselors were accessible and I appreciated the fact that they set you up with a plan. My only advice is to take suggestions, these people know what they are doing and truly care and want clients to succeed. They were able to coordinate a transition into residential treatment for me which helped me stay sober long term. Thank y all for giving me my life back!

Two rooms that I was shown were filthy where I didn't feel like I could relax until I swept and wiped down surfaces. Some of the things found were a bloody pillow, used toothbrushes, used tobacco products , and dirty sheets. I was told; "Oh yeah the cleaning lady hasn't been around in a while."Eventually I let someone know I wanted to leave because I was uncomfortable and upon asking for alternative solutions I was told not to bother with AA or any group assistance because I couldn't finish a 5 day detox so those programs wouldn't help me.Talking to the "director" made me feel worse, I explained to him that I had a negative experience and wanted to leave, his response was "Well I want a million dollars!" He also told me I was ruining his day off.There is a UP TO 4 hour hold "rule" upon discharge (when the process takes maybe 30 minutes) but when I was acknowledging the discharge items the UP TO 4 hour rule mentioned that time was for all medication to leave your system. I didn't take any medication before asking to leave so this hold was just a ploy to get me to stay. No one could explain to me why I was being held so they let me leave but I couldn't get my keys, wallet, phone until 4 hours later because only the "director" had access and "rules are rules".I came back 37 minutes early so was asked to wait off the property in the rain because my AMA was "complete". I finally get my items back and they tell me the cash can only be accessed by the "director". Not worth my time to go back for the money.For the $1900 I paid to come here I expected more than to be treated as an inconvenience, lied to, and discouraged. If your place is understaffed don't fill it up with more people than you can take care of but I guess your director does want that million dollars.

I was a client here on Thanksgiving 2018 before going to Nova for 90 days. I have not had a drink since. When you stumble into a detox facility you are often scared, anxious, uncertain, and ashamed. This facility was quiet & comfortable, the nurses seemed trustworthy, and the RCA staff made you feel heard, seen, and uplifted. My cynical alcoholic self expected the rehab industry to be full of salesmen and charlatans. I did not encounter any here. The current director of operations, Mark R. was one of my counselors at Nova. I can't think of anyone who takes their recovery, and the recovery of others, more seriously than Mark.

I went through briarwood detox 6years ago and I am still sober today, I have been able to send countless people friends and even strangers to go here as well to begin their recovery journey. As much as I didn t want to be there when I had to go it was one of the best detox experiences I have had. Amazing food, really fun cool people there, and best of all didn t feel like a hospital. They provided everything I needed to push me to the place I needed to be. Thank you for saving my life from heroin.
