About Helen Ross McNabb Center CenterPointe Detoxification Unit
The Helen Ross McNabb Center CenterPointe Detoxification Unit operates at 5310 Ball Camp Pike in Knoxville, Tennessee, at the heart of the McNabb Center’s Knox County footprint. SAMHSA, Google Maps, and the organizational website all confirm the address, with phone 865-523-4704 on file and an average Google rating of 3.4 stars across 32 reviews.
SAMHSA confirms a full continuum at this site: medical detox, residential treatment, and outpatient programming. The clinical model is anchored in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with explicit capacity for trauma and PTSD plus co-occurring disorders. American Sign Language services are flagged in SAMHSA’s accessibility data, alongside service for Deaf and hard-of-hearing populations. Men and women are both served. The McNabb Center’s substance use service line, as listed on the public website, includes residential care, detoxification, intensive outpatient, Medication Assisted Therapy (MAT), and recovery/peer support — consistent with the SAMHSA-confirmed levels of care at the CenterPointe site.
Accreditation runs two layers deep. SAMHSA records CARF accreditation for the CenterPointe site, and the McNabb Center’s own website also lists CARF accreditation. Accepted payment methods per SAMHSA span Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, TRICARE, self-pay/cash, and state insurance — an unusually broad payor mix that makes the program accessible to military families and TennCare members alongside privately insured clients. Specific in-network insurance carriers are not enumerated in the source materials.
The McNabb Center is the region’s leading nonprofit provider of mental health, substance use, social, and victim services, with 11 Knox County locations plus operations in Blount, Anderson, McMinn, Hamilton, Hamblen, Cocke, and Sevier counties. CenterPointe sits inside this regional network, so clients can step down from detox into the McNabb Center’s outpatient, MAT, peer-support, or residential rehabilitation programs without leaving the organization. The general 24/7 information line is 1-800-255-9711, and the Knoxville Adult Psychiatric Emergency line is 865-539-2409.
