Getting started is simple
We make admission straightforward and compassionate — most of it happens with a single, confidential phone call.
Four steps from your first call to care
Phone interview
Admission interviews are performed over the phone. Our Admissions Director speaks with the prospective patient and/or family to gather basic information, identify the drug of choice and history of use, and collect a brief medical history including current medications.
Review & approval
This information is then reviewed by our Admissions Director for approval, so we can confirm that White Sage Recovery is the right fit for a safe, comfortable detox.
Arrival & check-in
Once a patient is admitted, a member of our team contacts the patient and/or family to prepare for arrival. Check-in dates vary based on the patient’s readiness, location, and our availability.
Assessment & care plan
A nurse performs a comprehensive assessment and works with a provider to develop a custom treatment plan. All patients have daily contact with a provider to discuss medications and treatment goals.

A safe, comfortable check-in
Upon arrival, a member of our staff greets the patient, assists with check-in, and helps them get settled in their room. Because disconnecting from the stressors of life promotes healing, we have patients place their cell phone and other valuables into a safe for the duration of their stay.
One of our nurses performs a comprehensive assessment covering current substance use, addiction patterns, previous treatment, medical history, and current medications. A safe detox is our goal, and our treatment plans generally include medications to minimize the likelihood of complications and make the process more comfortable.
