Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detox is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
