Ocean View - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not conducted in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can effectively oversee and provide medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some type of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any difficulties are fixed as rapidly and safely as possible.
