What is medically monitored detoxification?
Medically monitored detoxification is the portion of treatment in which patients rid their bodies of substances they have been abusing. This is the most dangerous part of the recovery process. Our medically monitored detoxification unit has nurses on staff 24 hours a day, seven days a week and a doctor who checks on our patients daily.
