New Drug & Alcohol Withdrawal Treatment
Take the First Step on the Road to Recovery
Millions of people across the country struggle with substance use disorder. Substance use is rarely an “at home” problem and can affect every aspect of the person’s life, including school, community, and work.
Substance use disorder is a health issue, not a personal choice.
Unfortunately, far too many people are hesitant to go to the hospital for help because they fear the symptoms of withdrawal during detoxification. Additionally, abruptly ceasing alcohol or drug use can be dangerous.
New Vision at Trinity Health Grand Haven Hospital offers an inpatient medical stabilization service for adults with drug, alcohol or related health issues. The service accepts adults 18 & older who are currently using or are experiencing acute withdrawal symptoms from certain drugs.

What to Expect
Upon admission to the hospital for medical stabilization, assessments of the patient’s fundamental needs are conducted. These assessments include a medical history, physical, a complete laboratory workup and a nursing assessment. This pre-screening process will enable the patient to be admitted alongside a personalized plan for treatment.
Patients who are under the influence of chemical substances, and are considered medically unstable, will be closely observed and stabilized. New Vision accepts patients who are experiencing withdrawal symptoms from cessation of use of certain substances, in conjunction with other related health issues.
The diagnosis of need for inpatient admission can only be made by a licensed physician. The service accepts most insurance plans. SpecialCare Hospital Management administers New Vision for the hospital, and has a financial interest in this service.
