Detoxification - Bedford, NY.

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab.

Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some type of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehab facility which can supply detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any problems are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
