There isn't an exact practice for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
