Drug & Alcohol Detox Centers in Shelbyville, KY

The facility is classified as a residential and outpatient treatment site and offers two levels of care-medical detox and an outpatient program. It is CARF-accredited and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, and self-pay. Services are provided in English.

Because there is only one center in or near the city, people whose needs fall outside what that facility offers-such as residential treatment or intensive outpatient programming-may want to explore options in surrounding communities.

Shelbyville sits within reasonable driving distance of several larger treatment markets, particularly Louisville and the Elizabethtown corridor.

These include Brook Hospital and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Louisville, Isaiah House in Willisburg, Healing Place in Louisville, Stepworks of Nicholasville, Stepworks Crowne Pointe in Elizabethtown, Stepworks of Elizabethtown, and Commitment House in Elizabethtown.

Residential treatment is available at several of those sites, and intensive outpatient or partial hospitalization programs appear at others.

Distances listed are approximate and based on city centroids rather than exact facility addresses.

Medical detox involves clinical supervision during the withdrawal process and is typically the first step for people with physical dependence on alcohol, opioids, or other substances. It is not the same as completing a full treatment program. After detox, many people transition to a higher or lower level of ongoing care, such as residential treatment, a partial hospitalization program, intensive outpatient, or a standard outpatient program.
