What a wonderful experience! This was my first time in a long detoxing stay. They set you up for success and give you all the tools to prepare yourself for after care. An awesome staff that truly cares about you! The chefs are fantastic and they have plenty of snacks to eat. They give you all your medicine and therapy. There are too many people to thank! I highly recommend SCAT for your recovery.
Read on GoogleI had the best experience at South Carolina Addiction Treatment! This was my third time in a detox facility and it was by far the best and most loving community I have been apart of. The staff is outstanding. They really do care about their clients and want to see people recover and succeed in life. I have never been offered so much support and help like I did at S.C.A.T in my life. Please, if you feel like you need help and are thinking about going to a detox/ treatment facility, call S.C.A.T, you won’t regret it!
Read on GoogleI have been to drug treatment on three other occasions. When I arrived here, I was dealing with several different issues besides my drug problems. Kristine and Tammy help me through some very serious personal situations, as well as Amanda. I would highly recommend this facility. Because now I’m going to a longer treatment facility, which I have never done in my life, and if they hadn’t helped me, I wouldn’t have become the spiritual person that I’ve become now, which I was not before. And I love those three staff members for life.

Family owned and CARF-accredited, South Carolina Addiction Treatment delivers medically supervised detox with 24/7 nursing in an intimate 16-bed setting in Simpsonville, with same-day admissions handled in one confidential call.
Family owned and operated
As South Carolina's only family owned and operated addiction treatment facility, SCAT keeps detox personal, with a small team that knows every client by name from the first day.
24/7 medical supervision
Addiction-trained nurses are on site around the clock, tracking withdrawal and giving comfort medications when the clinical picture shows they are needed.
Safe for high-risk withdrawals
Alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can be dangerous, so medically supervised detox catches and treats complications early, something quitting alone cannot do.
Assessments within 24 hours
Nursing, biopsychosocial, history and physical, and psychiatric assessments are all completed in the first day, so each client's plan is built quickly and accurately.
Same-day, in-network admissions
Benefits are verified before arrival and intake often begins the same day. SCAT is in network with Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Molina, Ambetter, Magellan, and MedCost.
A seamless step into residential
Detox and residential care share one campus, so clients who continue into the residential week never have to switch providers or restart treatment.
What to Expect During Medical Detox at SCAT?
First 24 hours
Arrival and assessment
After a same-day intake handled by a behavioral health tech, the nursing team completes a full medical work-up and all four core assessments to shape the detox plan.
Days 1-7
Medically supervised withdrawal
Nurses monitor symptoms around the clock and provide comfort medications, rest, and home-cooked meals so clients move through withdrawal safely and as comfortably as possible.
Throughout the stay
Groups and community
Clients are welcome to rest, and most choose to join the daily groups and shared meals that make detox at SCAT feel like a community rather than a clinic.
Around Day 7
Aftercare or residential
As detox ends, the team helps each client either continue into the residential week or step into an individualized aftercare plan.

Our Medical Detox Admission Process
Call the confidential admissions line
A single conversational call with an admissions representative covers a first screening and scheduling, with support and confidentiality from the very first contact.
Insurance verification (VOB)
Benefits are verified before arrival at no cost and no obligation, so each client knows what detox will involve before committing.
Same-day arrival
With pre-screening complete, intake can often begin the same day, sometimes within the hour, which matters most when withdrawal is already underway.
Intake and assessment
On arrival, the team completes intake and the nursing work-up, and detox protocols begin right away under 24/7 medical supervision.
