Level 3.7 detox refers to a medically monitored inpatient withdrawal management program for individuals experiencing moderate to severe symptoms of substance withdrawal. At Hygea Healthcare, we provide 3.7 detox as part of our full continuum of care to ensure safety, comfort, and support during the most vulnerable stages of recovery.
What Does Level 3.7 Detox Mean?
Level 3.7 is defined by the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) as a structured, medically staffed detox program where patients require 24-hour nursing care and daily oversight by physicians. This level is designed for individuals who may be at risk for complications during withdrawal or need close monitoring due to co-occurring medical or mental health conditions.
Who Is 3.7 Detox For?
3.7 detox is typically recommended for individuals who:
- Are dependent on alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, or other substances with complex withdrawal symptoms
- Have a history of seizures, delirium tremens (DTs), or severe withdrawal reactions
- Need a higher level of care due to other physical or psychiatric health concerns
- Cannot safely detox on their own at home or in an outpatient setting
What to Expect During 3.7 Withdrawal Management
At Hygea, our 3.7 detox program includes:
- 24/7 nursing supervision to monitor vitals, manage symptoms, and ensure stability
- Physician-led treatment plans including safe medication protocols
- Supportive therapy and trauma-informed care during early stabilization
- Comfortable 7-10 day inpatient setting with compassionate staff and peer support
- Insurance verification and admissions help
Why Medically Supervised Detox Matters
Detoxing without medical support can be dangerous and, in some cases, life-threatening. Level 3.7 detox helps minimize complications, alleviate discomfort, and set the stage for long-term success. Once stabilized, clients at Hygea can seamlessly transition into our 3.5 residential treatment program for continued healing.
