What Are Some Ways to Find Just the Right Detox
Center?

• Make Sure It Is State-Licensed and Highly Rated -
  You want to find a detox center that is both
  state-licensed, and that is highly rated. It is
  because these detox centers are assured of having
  the finest of treatment programs. They also
  employ counselors and staff that are
  professional, experienced, and caring for
  patients.
• Visit A Detox Center Before You Go for Treatment
  There - It goes without being said, a person
  should make sure to pay a visit to a detox center
  location, before actually going there to begin a
  regimen of treatment for themselves or a loved
  one. By doing this, you can decide first-hand if
  the detox center is right, and if it is clean and
  hospitable in every way.
• Think About Choosing a Detox Center That Isnt
  Close By - The reason for doing this is clear. If
  you decide to go and get treatment at a detox
  center, that is in another part of the country
  you are helping to distance yourself away from
  the situation that did help support your
  addiction in the first place. Plus, a change of
  scenery is excellent as well, for mapping out a
  whole new beginning and making up your mind to be
  clean and not addicted.

What Are Some Ways to Find Just the Right Detox
Center?

• Find Out If There Is a Waiting List and How Long
  Should You Wait - The detox center that you may
  choose for treatment may have a waiting list for
  new patients. If it does have a waiting list,
  find out how long you would have to wait for
  treatment, and if you can wait that long. If you
  are in an emergency, and cannot wait, you may
  just have to seek out another detox center as
  your one choice more quickly.
• Make Sure Your Insurance Covers the Program and
  That Its Budget-Friendly - You want to pick a
  detox center that will be in coverage under your
  insurance, and that isnt too costly should you
  have to pay for some of the costs. The detox
  center should meet your needs for it.

Key Differences Between Outpatient And Inpatient
Detox Centers

• Outpatient Detox Centers
• Provide daytime treatment
• Allow patients to go home each evening
• Appeal to patients with less severe withdrawal
  symptoms
• Allow patients to keep their day jobs
• Cause fewer disruptions in a persons schedule
• Inpatient Detox Centers
• Involve full-time supervision
• Include more extensive treatment
• Remove temptations from a patients immediate
  surroundings
• Appeal to patients who may suffer from withdrawal
• Need constant stay at detox center

When Is It Time to Visit a Detox Center?

• If the patient experiences moderate to extreme
  withdrawal symptoms the time he decided to stop
  the drug he is currently addicted to. The
  withdrawal symptoms vary depending on the drug
  previously used. It could be
• Nausea
• Constipation
• Muscle pain
• Diarrhea
• Uncontrollable shaking
• Intense sweating
• Serious headaches
• Hot and cold flashes

When Is It Time to Visit a Detox Center?

• If the body is craving for drug or alcohol, he is
  addicted to all the time. If he is not able to do
  anything than being high, or if he selects
  activities he does based on whether he can be
  under the influence of alcohol or drug while
  doing them, seeking medical assistance should be
  done if this is the case.
• If he just lost his job because of drug or
  alcohol abuse. When someone loses his job, it is
  not just the paycheck he lost but also the
  opportunities and his reputation. It would be
  harder for someone who got fired out because of
  drug or alcohol addiction to find a new job if he
  does not complete sessions with a specialist in a
  detox center.
• If he is already facing legal and/or financial
  issues because of his alcohol or drug addiction.
  Any addiction can put your passbook down to zero,
  and to those who cannot stop the urge of the drug
  or alcohol they are addicted to, may end up
  drowning with debts and has no way paying them
  off.

Rethinking Drug Clinic and Rehab Centre designs

• Interiors- Some recently designed clinics boast
  of comfortable interiors which include but are
  not limited to a clubhouse with designated social
  spaces, VIP Villas with elegant furnishings,
  well-manicured gardens that display unique water
  features and reading libraries for the live-in
  patients. Other drug clinics that offer
  outpatient services have also raised the ante by
  breaking away from the stigma of cold white walls
  which intimidate the patients and still offer the
  serenity, medical and psychological attention
  that is needed and therefore giving the entire
  process the dignity it deserves.
• Spiritual retreat- Other clinics are designed to
  offer 12 steps to serenity with emphasis on
  prayer and meditation. Some even go as far as
  adding a chapel or mosque making it a functional
  space that pulls double duty as a spiritual
  retreat as well as a health resort. This only
  increases the destination to be relaxing for the
  mind, body, and soul.

Rethinking Drug Clinic and Rehab Centre designs

• Family friendly environment- Some drug clinics
  have created a program that is a comprehensive
  treatment which involves the patients close
  family and relatives as part of the treatment as
  opposed to segregating the patient in a secluded
  environment. Space will, therefore, include group
  and family activities to aid in the
  rehabilitation of the patient as part of the
  normalization process.
• Balanced staff to patient ratio- Clinics have
  become aware of the need to balance patients and
  staff to monitor the progress of each patient. As
  a result, the number of patient deaths because of
  negligence or general mismanagement has
  dramatically reduced because patients are closely
  monitored, and the general staff isnt
  overworked.

Drug Clinics

• Drug clinics offer medical and therapeutic
  approaches for drug-dependent patients. Clinics
  tackle addiction by discussing physical and
  psychological dependence in many ways. Treatment
  is usually multi-faceted and comes in the form of
  medications combined with therapy techniques.
  Therapy may be individualized or group and can be
  family therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy,
  motivational interviews, and incentives or a mix
  of treatments tailored to the individual patient.
  Many facilities base or include the 12-Step
  Model in their programs. Medications can be
  paired with therapy techniques to accomplish
  long-term remission. Some clinics offer
  in-patient service, but more often services are
  out-patient.
