About Sandstone Care – Colorado Springs
Sandstone Care – Colorado Springs is a residential detox facility with capacity for 18 people at a time. They’re based in Colorado Springs, Colorado. They offer medical detox and medication assisted treatment (MAT) as part of their residential program for young adults and adults. They can treat addiction to alcohol, marijuana, stimulants, and all forms of opioids.
Home-Like Facilities with Full Medical Supervision
Sandtone has gone out of their way to provide a home-like experience without compromising on the level of care you receive. Their detox program includes 24/7 medical supervision and experienced staff who monitor your condition and keep you comfortable.
They can provide MAT to manage long term cravings and withdrawals once you’re past the detox phase of treatment.
Individualized Care Designed to Motivate and Inspire
Sandstone Care has a staff-to-client ratio of 3:1, which means you receive a lot of personal attention in their program. They’ve created a nurturing environment where you can be heard.
Throughout your stay, the staff help you to outline your values, beliefs, and passions. The idea is to know yourself fully and deeply, because this inspires you to create a vibrant life and protect it through healthy choices. It’s easier to remain strong during times of temptation if you have a solid understanding of the person you want to be and the life you want to have.
Age-Specific Programming that Matches Your Stage of Life
Sandstone does a good job tailoring their program to match you on a developmental level. They adjust their programming to focus on aspects of recovery that are unique to your age group. For young adults, they might spend more time with you looking at getting used to independence or figuring out how to establish yourself.
For adults, they could incorporate sessions on family dynamics or balancing a stressful work life with your other responsibilities. At all times, you can socialize with your peers indoors and outside and relax with music and games.
Something I liked about their approach is that they allow you to keep your cell phone throughout your treatment duration. They believe it’s important to have access to your loved ones even if you’re focusing on your recovery.
