About Virginia Hospital Center
Virginia Hospital Center is a hospital program located at 1701 North George Mason Drive in Arlington, Virginia, offering medical detox and residential treatment for addiction. Operating within a full hospital setting distinguishes this facility from freestanding detox centers — patients have access to hospital-level resources around the clock, every day of the week. The program serves Arlington, VA and is reachable at (703) 558-6755 for same-day intake inquiries.
The facility provides two levels of care confirmed for people seeking addiction treatment: medical detox and residential treatment. Medical detox at a hospital program means withdrawal is managed within a clinical environment with 24/7 availability, a significant consideration for individuals whose withdrawal may require close medical oversight. Following detox, residential treatment allows patients to continue structured care without returning home prematurely.
Treatment at Virginia Hospital Center addresses co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, meaning individuals dealing with both addiction and a mental health condition can receive integrated care under one roof. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the therapeutic methods used within the program. This dual-diagnosis capability is a practical differentiator for patients whose substance use is entangled with depression, anxiety, trauma, or other psychiatric conditions.
The program is equipped to serve individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing, and services are provided in English. On the financial side, Virginia Hospital Center accepts a broad range of payment options — Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, and self-pay — making the program accessible to a wider range of patients than many private detox facilities. Those ready to take the next step can contact the facility directly or reach the patient experience team at patientexperience@vhchealth.org.
