Monticello - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and provide medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services often include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can present detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
