Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG IS THE AVERAGE CLIENT STAY?
The standard stay is 30-60 days in most cases. During this time your primary focus will be participating in daily meetings and 12-step recovery programs. Our clients will also meet on an individual basis with a Medical Doctor and certified, trained counselors.

HOW LONG DOES THE ACTUAL "DETOX" PROCESS TAKE?
Keep in mind that the addiction is as unique as the client. Typically, the actual process of detoxification can often be achieved in between 7-10 days. However, this is only the very "first step" of removing the active addict from everyday use, and is hardly enough treatment to warrant exiting the program at that time. In fact, many participants will choose to stay for additional services (30-60 days) to discover and to treat the more profound causes of abuse.

WHAT DO YOU ACTUALLY MEAN BY "PAINLESS" DETOX?
Your addiction is as unique as you are, as are the varying degrees of severity of the detoxification process. In order to alleviate as many symptoms as possible, our doctors prescribe the best drugs available to address the discomfort that comes with withdrawal symptoms. Drugs like Suboxone & Subutex, the first medications to have been formulated precisely for opiate addiction in nearly 30 years, are included.

CAN I USE MY CELULAR PHONE AND STAY IN TOUCH WITH MY BUSINESS?
Here at Capo, we know and recognize that you want to keep up with your responsibilities. We design your program to fit your individual needs. As such, we are pleased to recommend our remote offices (with fax, internet, and telephone access) so you can maintain contact with family, friends, or business associates.

CAN I LEAVE THE FACILITY OR TAKE DAYS OFF DURING THE RECOVERY PROCESS?
Every client’s program is tailored for his/her needs. Typically, "weekend passes" are a motivating factor in your process.
