Detoxification - Kiamichi Christian Mission, Oklahoma

Individuals who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can appropriately oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services usually include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the person is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehab facility which can offer detox services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any problems are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
