As per 2004 data collected by TEDS, 20,441 patients enrolled for treatment at alcohol and drug detox centers in Kentucky. Of these 19.4% underwent rehabilitation for alcohol abuse while 8.9% were there for treatment of cocaine addiction.

The aim of any drug or alcohol detox program is not only to cure a patient in the short term, but also to help him develop the mental strength to stay away from drug or alcohol habits permanently. Like other drug detox centers in other states in the US, Kentucky detox centers offer a combination of short term and long term treatments that use medication and other therapy to help a patient cope with drug detoxification and keep away from addiction or abuse for life.

Short term residential programs at a Kentucky drug detox center include treatment with medication and therapy sessions under close supervision. Once the process of drug detoxification is complete, then it is usually followed up by outpatient treatment such as counseling to ensure that the patient gets the necessary support and mental strength to get rid of their addiction forever.

Besides this, for patients who have not been prolonged users, Kentucky drug detox centers offer out patient programs for drug and alcohol detox through individual or groups counseling sessions that are medication free.
