Drug & Alcohol Detox in Pulaski, Tennessee
Medically Supervised Drug & Alcohol Detox — Proudly Serving Tennessee and the South
Welcome to Genesis Medical Detox in Pulaski, Tennessee
Where Genesis Began — Tennessee’s Founding Medical Detox Location
In 2021, Genesis Medical Detox opened its first location inside Southern Tennessee Regional Health System in Pulaski, Tennessee — and it has been the cornerstone of the Genesis network ever since. What started as a mission to bring serious, hospital-based medical detox to Southern Tennessee has grown into a multi-state organization, but Pulaski remains where that mission took its first breath.
This is not just our largest Tennessee facility — it is the location that defined what Genesis Medical Detox stands for. And that legacy shows in everything from our clinical standards to the way our team treats every single patient who walks through the door.

What Happens When You Arrive at Our Detox in Tennessee?
From the moment you walk in, our team takes over so you don’t have to figure anything out alone:
- Our nursing team immediately assesses your condition and gets you settled into your room
Your physician reviews your history and prescribes medications tailored to your specific withdrawal needs - Nurses monitor you continuously using CIWA and COWS — the clinical gold standard protocols for alcohol and opioid withdrawal management
- A typical stay is 5 to 7 days, though your length of stay is always determined by your individual clinical needs
Comfortable Accommodations for Detox Inside a Licensed Tennessee Hospital
Because How You Feel During Detox Matters
We believe your environment should support your recovery, not make it harder. At our Pulaski facility, patients have access to comfortable accommodations, a dedicated group room for daily sessions, and outstanding food — something our patients consistently mention as a highlight of their stay.
You are not in a cold clinical environment here. You are in a space designed for healing, inside a hospital that has the medical infrastructure to keep you safe throughout the entire process.
You Will Not Go Through This Alone
Every patient at our Pulaski facility has access to three group sessions daily led by our recovery support specialists, regular clinical check-ins, and a case management team that begins planning your next steps before you ever walk out the door.
Family communication is welcomed throughout your stay — because we understand that recovery affects everyone who loves you, not just you.

Your Path Forward After Detox
Built By People Who Have Spent Their Careers in This Industry
Genesis Medical Detox was not built by people new to addiction treatment. The ownership group behind Genesis also founded Magnolia Ranch Recovery — a residential treatment program located right here in Pulaski, Tennessee, accredited by the Joint Commission and licensed by the Tennessee Department of Mental Health & Substance Abuse Services. That long-standing experience in building and operating clinically excellent treatment programs is what drives every Genesis Medical Detox location.
When you choose Genesis, you are choosing a team that understands the full picture of recovery — not just detox.
We Work With Your Existing Plan For Rehab or Aftercare— Or Help You Build One
We understand that many patients arrive at Genesis with an aftercare plan already in place. Whether you have been referred by an interventionist, a treatment center, or another clinical professional, our case management team will work directly within your existing plan to ensure a seamless transition from detox into your next level of care. Your treatment team’s work is respected and honored here.
For those arriving without a plan, our case management team gets to work before you ever leave our doors.
A Path Forward for Every Patient — Rehab in Tennesee and More
No two patients leave Genesis the same way — and that is intentional. Our case management team works with every patient individually to identify the right next step based on their clinical needs, their support system, and their insurance or financial situation.
For patients referred by an interventionist or treatment center with a residential program already identified, our case management team coordinates directly with that program to ensure a smooth, timely transition out of detox and into the next level of care. We know that momentum matters in early recovery — and we work hard to make sure nothing slows that process down.
For patients with private insurance who are ready for residential treatment and need guidance on where to go next, we are proud to have a relationship with Magnolia Ranch Recovery — a premier residential program located right here in Pulaski, Tennessee, offering individualized treatment, a low client-to-therapist ratio, equine assisted therapy, CBT, DBT, and a comprehensive aftercare program. It is among the most respected residential programs in the Southeast.
For patients whose insurance or financial situation requires a different path, our case management team works to identify the right options — whether that means connecting you with another residential program, a state-funded treatment option, or an outpatient care plan that fits your life.
Every patient leaves with a plan. No one leaves without support.

Why Choose Genesis Medical Detox in Pulaski, Tennessee
Tennessee’s Most Established Genesis Detox Location — Open Since 2021
For many people, the biggest barrier to getting help is not the desire to get clean — it is the fear of withdrawal. The physical discomfort, the uncertainty, the feeling of not knowing what your body will go through. That fear is real, and we take it seriously.
At Genesis Medical Detox in Pulaski, you will never face withdrawal without a trained medical team beside you. Our physicians, nurses, and clinical staff are experienced in managing even the most difficult withdrawal processes — monitoring your symptoms continuously, adjusting your medications in real time, and keeping you as safe and comfortable as possible throughout your stay.
As Genesis Medical Detox’s founding Tennessee location, our Pulaski facility has helped hundreds of people from across Tennessee and the South take this first step. People who were scared. People who had tried before. People who did not know where else to turn. What they found at Genesis was not a clinical transaction — it was a team of people who genuinely cared about what happened to them.
Serving patients from Nashville, Huntsville, Columbia, Murfreesboro, Clarksville, Florence and communities throughout Tennessee and the South — if you have been putting this off, we understand why. And we want you to know — we are ready when you are.
