About

About Sandstone Care Detox Center

Sandstone Care Detox Center is a medically supervised detox and substance use treatment facility located at 2102 University Park Boulevard in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The center provides withdrawal management and addiction treatment services for adults, young adults ages 18 to 25, men, women, and pregnant women, operating around the clock every day of the week. Its accreditations from the Joint Commission, the Council on Accreditation, and NCQA place it among a small number of Colorado Springs detox centers carrying all three of those credentials simultaneously.

The facility’s continuum of care spans three levels: medical detox, residential treatment, and outpatient programs. Medical detox is the entry point for individuals whose withdrawal requires direct clinical oversight, and the residential level allows patients to continue structured treatment following detox without leaving the campus. The outpatient program extends care for those who have stabilized or whose clinical needs do not require overnight placement.

Clinical treatment at Sandstone Care incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and addresses co-occurring conditions, including trauma and PTSD alongside substance use disorders. Dual diagnosis treatment is a confirmed part of the program, meaning patients presenting with both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder are served within the same treatment setting rather than being redirected elsewhere.

Sandstone Care Detox Center explicitly serves pregnant women, a population many detox programs are not equipped to accept. Young adults between 18 and 25 are also a named population, which reflects a specific clinical orientation rather than a general open-door policy. Payment is accepted through private insurance, TRICARE, state insurance, and self-pay, and the facility can be reached directly at (719) 249-3545 or by email at MedRec@sandstonecare.com.

  • Holds Joint Commission, COA, and NCQA accreditations — a rare triple-accreditation among Colorado Springs detox programs
  • Accepts TRICARE, making it one of few local detox centers serving active-duty and veteran-connected patients
  • Medically supervised detox combined with residential and outpatient levels under one provider, supporting a full continuum without facility transfers
  • Explicitly equipped to serve pregnant women — a population many detox programs cannot accept
  • Dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring trauma and PTSD integrated directly into the detox and residential program

Medical Detox Programs at Sandstone Care in Colorado Springs

Sandstone Care Detox Center provides medically supervised detox as the foundation of its treatment continuum. The facility operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, meaning clinical staff are available at any hour for patients in active withdrawal. For individuals and families evaluating same-day or emergency admission, the center can be contacted directly at (719) 249-3545 or via email at MedRec@sandstonecare.com.

Following medical detox, patients at Sandstone Care can step into residential treatment at the same facility, avoiding the clinical and logistical disruption of transferring to a separate provider. This integrated detox-to-residential pathway is a structural advantage for patients who need continued support after the acute withdrawal phase has been managed.

Dual Diagnosis and Co-Occurring Disorder Treatment

Many people entering detox are managing more than one condition at the same time. Sandstone Care Detox Center is confirmed to treat co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, including trauma and PTSD alongside substance use. Treating both conditions within a single program reduces the risk of one untreated condition destabilizing the other during or after detox.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is among the confirmed clinical methods used at the facility. CBT is frequently applied in dual diagnosis settings because it addresses the thought patterns that contribute to both substance use and mental health symptoms, making it a practical fit for the population Sandstone Care serves.

Who Is Eligible for Detox at Sandstone Care Colorado Springs

Sandstone Care Detox Center serves men and women, including young adults between 18 and 25, as well as pregnant women — a population with specific medical needs during withdrawal that many detox centers are not staffed or licensed to accommodate. The explicit inclusion of pregnant women in the confirmed patient population signals a clinical capability that goes beyond standard adult detox programming.

The center accepts a broad range of payment sources, including private insurance, TRICARE, state insurance, and self-pay or cash. TRICARE acceptance is particularly notable for military families in the Colorado Springs area, where proximity to military installations makes veteran and active-duty access a practical consideration when selecting a detox program.

Accreditations and Oversight at Sandstone Care Detox Center

Sandstone Care Detox Center holds accreditation from three independent bodies: the Joint Commission (JCAHO), the Council on Accreditation (COA), and the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). Each of these organizations applies its own standards review process, and holding all three simultaneously reflects a level of external oversight that is not common among detox programs of any size.

For families conducting due diligence before selecting a detox center, accreditation status is one of the more objective benchmarks available. Joint Commission accreditation in particular is widely recognized as a quality indicator in both behavioral health and acute medical settings, and its presence alongside COA and NCQA credentials reinforces Sandstone Care's standing as a clinically accountable provider in Colorado Springs.
