GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
People who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are offered at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can effectively oversee and supply medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services often include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as required to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some type of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any difficulties are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
