Detoxification - Riverside

Men and women who are physically dependent 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 eradicated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can adequately oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the client is as comfortable 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 wanted to make the detox process as easy 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 rehabilitation facility which can offer detoxification services, the person will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any complications are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
