About Novo Medical Detoxification Centers of Los Angeles Inc
Novo Medical Detoxification Centers of Los Angeles offers residential medical detox in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, CA, serving adults dealing with alcohol, opioid, benzodiazepine, cocaine, and prescription drug dependence alongside co-occurring mental health conditions. Accredited by The Joint Commission, the California Department of Health Care Services, and SAMHSA, Novo operates around the clock with same-day admissions and structured discharge planning to connect clients to the next phase of their recovery.
Novo Medical Detoxification Centers of Los Angeles Inc is a residential medical detox facility located at 11346 Thurston Place in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA 90049. Operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the center holds accreditation from The Joint Commission, the California Department of Health Care Services, and SAMHSA — a combination that signals a measurable commitment to clinical standards in a city saturated with treatment options. For individuals beginning the recovery journey or returning after relapse, Novo positions itself as the medically supervised first step before longer-term rehab or outpatient programming.
The facility's single defined level of care is medical detox, delivered in a residential setting. Program length is calibrated by substance and clinical need: alcohol detox typically runs five to seven days, opioid detox seven to ten days, benzodiazepine detox ten to twelve days, and overall medical detox programs range from three to fourteen days. For those who require extended stabilization before transitioning to residential rehabilitation, 30-, 60-, and 90-day residential rehab timelines are also referenced in program planning — giving clients and families a clearer picture of the full treatment continuum ahead.
Novo's clinical approach is grounded in clinical therapy and delivered under 24/7 supervised detox protocols. The facility describes its service model as concierge-level, with healthy meals and same-day admissions available for those ready to begin treatment without delay. Discharge planning is the formal bridge out of detox — a critical element for anyone pursuing sustained sobriety through sober living, outpatient programs, or ongoing aftercare in the Los Angeles recovery community.
Novo serves adults managing alcohol addiction, opioid addiction, heroin addiction, methadone dependence, benzodiazepine dependence, cocaine addiction, and prescription drug addiction. The center also treats co-occurring disorders including depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, impulse control disorder, and codependency — recognizing that lasting recovery requires addressing the full clinical picture. Insurance accepted includes Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Health Net, and several others; self-pay rates run $500–$2,500 per day. Medicaid, MediCal, and Medicare are not accepted.
Medical Detox in Los Angeles: What to Expect at Novo
Novo Medical Detoxification Centers of Los Angeles provides residential medical detox for adults navigating withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, heroin, benzodiazepines, cocaine, methadone, and prescription drugs. The program runs around the clock with 24/7 supervised detox protocols, and same-day admissions mean clients do not have to wait days for a bed when they are ready to take the first step toward recovery.
Program length at Novo is not arbitrary. Alcohol detox is structured for five to seven days, opioid detox for seven to ten days, and benzodiazepine detox for ten to twelve days — with the broader medical detox window spanning three to fourteen days depending on clinical need. For clients whose stabilization requires more time, the center also plans for residential rehabilitation stays of 30, 60, or 90 days, helping individuals and families think about addiction treatment as a continuum rather than a single event.
Co-Occurring Disorders and Whole-Person Stabilization
Substance dependence rarely arrives alone. Novo's confirmed treatment population includes adults with co-occurring diagnoses such as depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, impulse control disorder, and codependency. Addressing these conditions during the detox phase — rather than deferring them to later stages of treatment — creates a more stable foundation for the recovery work that follows in outpatient programs, sober living, or long-term residential rehab.
This dual-focus approach is reflected in Novo's accreditations. Joint Commission certification, SAMHSA recognition, and licensing by the California Department of Health Care Services collectively require the center to meet defined clinical and operational standards — giving families a verifiable benchmark when evaluating addiction treatment options in Los Angeles County.
Paying for Detox and Planning the Road Ahead
Novo accepts a range of insurance options including PPO and HMO plans, private insurance, and corporate insurance. Accepted carriers include Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Health Net, Valueoptions, Health Partners, and First Choice Health. Self-pay and financing options are also available, with self-pay rates ranging from $500 to $2,500 per day depending on the specific level of care. Medicaid, MediCal, and Medicare are not accepted, so families should confirm current coverage details directly with the center.
Discharge planning is a built-in part of every stay at Novo — not an afterthought. For a community-minded audience focused on long-term recovery, that matters: the transition out of medical detox into sober living, an outpatient program, or a residential treatment center is often where sustained sobriety is won or lost. Novo's discharge planning process is designed to make that handoff deliberate rather than accidental.
