Buena Vista Drug & Alcohol Recovery Center of Phoenix

The types of medications given for detox depend upon what our doctor decides will be the safest and most effective route for you based on the substance(s) being used and your individual medical needs. However, several medications are used frequently to help aid in the detox process, including Suboxone, Subutex, Ativan, Klonopin, and several other medications to help with anxiety, sleep, blood pressure, muscle cramping, etc.

Bring your driver’s license or other form of ID, insurance card, personal toiletries, clothing, a notebook, and reading and writing materials. If you wish, you may bring personal items and pictures to help you feel at home.

Hi Susan! Thank you for your message. We are sorry that you are having trouble reaching the right point of contact.

The average stay varies depending upon each patient’s individual needs and what our attending physician deems necessary to detox safely and comfortably after evaluating the patient. Typically, you can expect your detox stay to be between 3 and 7 days.

Cell phones and some electronic devices are permitted at Buena Vista while you are a guest, however the use may or may not be restricted depending on the stage of treatment you are in. Speak with your Treatment Advisor or Intake Coordinator for additional details.

Yes, while you stay at Buena Vista you have a private room. Please note that when at full capacity, an unlikely situation may occur that requires shared rooms for a few patients for a limited amount of time. When this happens, we strive to have patients who have been here for the longest duration room together so that those just arriving can have their own space to get settled and comfortable.

Let one of our admissions coordinators assist you in answering the question of whether treatment is necessary for you or your loved one by calling now. When you call, our admissions team assesses your needs by going through a pre-assessment questionnaire. The pre-assessment can be done completely over the phone, and usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes. This series of questions helps us to ensure the best individualized care from a medical and therapeutic standpoint and to determine if our detox program will be a good fit for you or your loved one.

Within the first 24 hours after your arrival to Buena Vista, you will have your first doctor’s visit. After this initial evaluation, a medical treatment plan will be made based on your individualized needs. An attending physician is in the office each day and nursing staff are on site 24/7. If the doctor decides that you need to see her on a daily basis, then this will be scheduled. Otherwise, you will see the doctor based on your treatment plan and your progress while in treatment.

While we do not regularly allow visitors while you or your loved one is a patient at Buena Vista, a visit can be approved in certain cases. The duration of stay is usually so short (between 3 and 7 days) that we strive to allow the patient enough time to rest and get through the hardest part in beginning his or her recovery from substance use. However, every patient is different, so visitation may be approved upon request.

Yes, call friends or family while you are a patient at our campus. We hope to keep families and friends as involved in our patients’ recovery as possible. Each day between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m., patients may make phone calls to their loved ones. We can also accommodate calls at different times, as needed and upon request, as we understand that not everyone can be available during our specific time slot.

Upon arrival, each patient meets one-on-one with our counselor for 45 to 60 minutes. As every patient has a unique individualized treatment plan, the frequency of one-on-one visits with our counselor is based on the needs of each patient. If necessary, our counselor will meet with you on a daily basis. Additionally, therapy groups that are available to all patients are facilitated Monday through Friday at various times. These groups are not required but are strongly encouraged. We hope that everyone will want to be active in starting his or her recovery and will participate and get involved!

We pride ourselves on being a small campus, which gives us the ability to provide individualized care while you or your loved one is in detox. Our current maximum capacity is 14 inpatients at one time.

Therapy groups are facilitated a couple of times a day by our counselor; they are not required but are strongly encouraged! In addition, we offer a yoga class once a week, have multiple television rooms, and several games and other engaging activities that patients are encouraged to participate in as well.

Yes, at Buena Vista we are able to admit patients at any time of the day or night, 7 days a week.
