Detoxification - Patterson, Georgia

Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can adequately oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services typically include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as needed to make the detox 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 detoxification facility or drug rehab facility which can supply detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any problems are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
