About

About LRADAC Detox and Outpatient

LRADAC Detox and Outpatient is the Richland County campus of the Lexington/Richland Alcohol and Drug Abuse Council, an established South Carolina behavioral health provider. The Columbia location is at 2711 Colonial Drive and operates alongside the agency’s Lexington site at 1068 South Lake Drive. Together, the two locations make up LRADAC’s full service network for the greater Columbia metropolitan area.

Services delivered through LRADAC include detoxification (withdrawal management), adult outpatient treatment, residential treatment, ADSAP DUI services, family services, and youth and teen treatment. The agency frames its work around personalized planning, noting publicly that programs are crafted with each patient’s specific needs in mind, and emphasizes a non-judgmental, recovery-focused environment in patient testimonials. Detoxification is openly described on LRADAC’s site as a service for patients experiencing withdrawal, supported by clinical staff such as counselor Marilyn Gaither.

LRADAC publicly references CARF accreditation, and the agency operates with administrative phone lines for general information, training, billing, prevention, and media, indicating a structured nonprofit operation. The organization also runs the LRADAC Foundation and the Rock 4 Recovery fundraiser to support its mission.

For admissions at the Colonial Drive site, prospective patients can call (803) 726-9300 directly or use the agency’s main assessments and intake line at (803) 726-9390. Walk-in assessment times are available, and patient referral forms can be submitted by agencies. Specifics on insurance, cost, and confidentiality are handled through LRADAC’s Admissions resources rather than published in detail on the public site, so confirming current accepted funding sources by phone before arrival is recommended.

The facility's detox programs utilize medical protocols to manage withdrawal symptoms while ensuring patient safety throughout the detoxification process.
