Hillsborough - Detoxification

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for individuals 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 ensuring the particular 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 sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can present detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any issues are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
