Integral Care – Ambulatory Detoxification
Integral Care’s Ambulatory Detoxification program, located at the Richard E. Hopkins Behavioral Health Building at 1165 Airport Boulevard in Austin, TX, provides crucial, community-based support for individuals seeking to overcome substance use challenges. Recognizing the critical need for accessible services, this program offers a professional and structured environment for the initial stages of recovery.
Program Overview and Philosophy
Ambulatory Detoxification is designed for individuals who require medical support during withdrawal but do not need 24-hour inpatient care. This outpatient model allows participants to return to their homes or other supportive living environments daily while receiving essential clinical oversight. The program focuses on providing a safe, medically supervised withdrawal process, ensuring comfort and stability as participants transition into long-term treatment and recovery efforts.
Integral Care emphasizes a holistic approach to behavioral health. While the Ambulatory Detox program focuses on the immediate physical needs of detoxification, it operates within a larger framework of services available at the Airport Boulevard location, including Mental Health Urgent Care and other comprehensive services. The goal is not just short-term stabilization but connecting individuals with ongoing care, such as counseling, therapy, and support groups, necessary for sustained sobriety.
Access and Operating Hours
The program operates Monday through Friday, with specific hours designed to accommodate the intense needs of detoxification while maintaining an outpatient structure. Services are generally available from 6:00 AM to 2:45 PM. While some programs at this location accept walk-ins, the Ambulatory Detox program typically requires an appointment or referral. Individuals interested in accessing this specific service are encouraged to contact Integral Care directly to discuss eligibility, assessment procedures, and appointment scheduling.
Integral Care serves as a vital resource for Travis County residents, striving to make necessary behavioral health services as accessible as possible. For specific questions regarding the Ambulatory Detox program, appointments, or connecting with other co-located services like C.A.R.E. or RA1SE, contacting the main line is the best first step.
