West Camp, New York - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox 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. Detox services usually include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and ensuring the person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some variety of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can provide detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any complications are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
