Campbell Hill - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and present medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can supply detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any problems are handled as rapidly and safely as possible.
