Pathways: Inpatient Medical Detox

Inpatient Medical Detox at Alliance Health Center: Why Choose Us?

Pathways, our medical detoxification (detox) program, helps adults 18+ take the first steps toward sobriety with medical supervision and support.

Detox is a process where your body starts adjusting to life without drugs or alcohol. It can be one of the hardest parts of recovery, but you don’t have to do it alone. Our substance use detox service helps ease symptoms and sets the foundation for lasting positive changes. 

Highlights of our Pathways program include:

• Trusted care: Alliance has been serving our East Central Mississippi community for more than 60 years. We maintain an excellent reputation — in part, due to our focus on patient care. People who come to us for help often leave feeling more hopeful about their future.* Get more information about us.
• Knowledgeable staff: You receive services from psychiatrists, nurse practitioners and clinicians with a depth of experience. They work closely with you to understand your needs and help you make steady progress toward treatment goals.
• Prompt admissions: Level of care assessments are available 24/7, and we work to make the admissions process as smooth as possible. Many assessments begin with a phone screening that takes place within an hour of your first call. This prompt response can help you start medical detox sooner. Find out more about admissions.
• Ongoing care: After detox, you may be eligible to continue treatment through our dual diagnosis program. This inpatient service helps people work through substance use and mental health challenges. You may also be eligible for our outpatient substance use services.
