Detoxification - Oswego

People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and provide medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and ensuring the person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detoxification 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 provide detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any problems are fixed as rapidly and safely as possible.
