What is the Nova admission process?
Admission to Nova can come in the form of a referral from a healthcare professional, a family or friend, an order by the court or by simply recognizing that help is needed. No matter how someone comes to us, the process is the same: Clients must arrive sober. Some addicts may require detox before being admitted, and drug addicts must cease using. Clients are only allowed to be taking certain approved prescription medication to be admitted to the program. Medical help may be required for detox or getting clean. Nova can provide referrals to assist in working with healthcare professionals in order to detoxify or to wean addicts off medication, as well as recommendations for medical facilities to assist in detox.
