Time spent in our medically-supervised detox treatment can vary according to the severity of the addiction and the client’s unique needs. However, most clients receive approximately a week of detox treatment.
While detoxing, our clients benefit from the support of a nurse practitioner and registered nurses who monitor their vitals in order to ensure client safety at all times. Similarly, our nursing staff will implement support and care to make the detoxification process as smooth as possible. It’s a much safer and more comfortable detox experience than is possible if detoxing independently at home (which is unsafe and ill-advised).
The objective of our Medical Detox Program is to help to put an end to each client’s physiological addiction to alcohol or drugs. Once this process is complete, our client can proceed to the next stage of rehabilitation, which involves participation in process groups, intensive counseling, and a variety of holistic treatment techniques.
Many patients who receive detoxification treatment at Discover Recovery continue into our Residential Program, our inpatient-style program that offers an intensive curriculum and usually lasts for 30 days or more.
