First Step treats those who are suffering due to the effects of alcohol
and/or pain medications and experiencing acute withdrawal symptoms.
Admission to First Step begins with a phone screening of the potential
patient Monday - Friday (no drop-ins). Patients are accepted once they
have been screened, their insurance company has been notified and an Aftercare
Plan has been set up.
Our Team is Ready to Help
Baxter Regional has a qualified treatment team including a Medical Director,
Hospitalists, Advanced Nurse Practitioners and nursing staff. Patients
can have their primary care physician refer to First Step, or the patient
can self-refer.
The ultimate goal of our First Step service is to provide a safe and comfortable
medical detox in an acute care hospital for approximately three nights.
Our patients are those who are in need of a medical detox, which is the very
first step in any recovery.
