Our intimate, boutique-style facility offers you a more personalized experience, with a greater staff-to-patient ratio in a clinically managed detox setting.
Palm Avenue Detox is a clinically managed 22-bed detoxification (withdrawal management) program serving men, women, trans and non-binary adults experiencing substance use disorders and co-occurring behavioral health disorders in San Mateo County. The average length of stay is typically five days or longer depending on medical necessity.
At Palm Avenue Detox, each client is screened for medical necessity and safety prior to admission, and each client is monitored consistently throughout their stay to ensure that withdrawal symptoms are not posing a medical risk. Therefore, it is routine for our staff members to assess vital signs and other risk factors to ensure one stabilizes safely in the program. Currently, participants who require withdrawal medications or other medical services are promptly linked to our medical provider partners throughout the County. Currently, we are working with our state licensing authorities to add healthcare practitioners and prescribers in-house!
Palm Avenue Detox is staffed by registered/certified SUD counselors, case managers, licensed vocational nurses and other support staff. Palm Avenue is not a medical detoxification program, as it does not employ doctors on site 24/7. However, the program operates under the direction of a licensed physician to ensure the utmost safety and comfort during the potentially difficult period of substance withdrawal. The dedicated treatment team outlined above works together to meet client needs as they progress through the withdrawal period. Clients may make this the start of their recovery journey and choose to continue to the next level of care – residential or outpatient treatment. Everyone’s journey is unique.
Whether it is your first time in treatment, or you have experienced several treatment episodes, Palm Avenue Detox strives to meet the needs of every adult in need of detox services.
Our boutique-style program at Palm Avenue Detox offers a safe and supportive atmosphere for individuals withdrawing from alcohol and other drugs, while also connecting them to a comprehensive network of recovery services within San Mateo County and neighboring communities.
Palm Avenue Detox is fully licensed and certified by the State of California Department of Health Care Services to provide clinically managed detoxification services.
