Treatment services at Northridge take an individualized care approach to detoxification. Clients stay at our detox center, where our highly trained medical staff monitors them for their safety and comfort. The goal of Northridge is to stabilize clients so they may begin the next step of treatment. As such, a foundation of individual, alternative, and group therapy is utilized during detox.
Clients are carefully monitored and assessed during detox to ensure we are best meeting their needs. This includes 24/7 monitoring and interventions to reduce discomfort. As clients stay at our center until detox is completed, they have access to nutritionally balanced meals prepared by our chef and a clean, supportive living environment. An aftercare plan is completed during detox, preventing stress and delay as clients transition into their treatment program of choice.
The exact time you will need to completely detox will vary depending on the substance, dosage, and time spent using. Other factors, such as sex, weight, and age, also play a role in detox time. However, the average time needed for detox is between three and seven days.
Every client is different, and as such, some may need more time to stabilize than others. Northridge Detox Center cautions clients not to rush the process, but instead focus on healing.
The first step of any drug rehab process is detoxification. However, detoxing alone can be difficult, uncomfortable, and even dangerous depending on the substance. Choosing to undergo medically assisted detox at a dedicated treatment facility ensures that the detox process is as safe and comfortable as possible. People who undergo medically assisted detox are more successful in sticking with treatment and eventually recovering compared to those who attempt to detox alone.
After detox is complete and the client is stabilized, they typically transition into another recovery center and into further treatment. Detox alone is not enough for complete recovery, especially for those with a dual diagnosis. Co-occurring disorders, such as depression or anxiety, must be treated alongside addiction and substance abuse as part of comprehensive dual diagnosis treatment.
Those needing more stabilization and specialized care can transition into residential treatment or a partial hospitalization program (PHP). After residential treatment is complete, it's common for clients to transition into outpatient treatment, such as an intensive outpatient program (IOP). Sober living and aftercare ensure that clients get the support they need to care for their mental health and safeguard their sobriety.
What treatment programs a client transitions into after detox will vary based on the individual, but care is taken to ensure that there are no delays in receiving further treatment.
Receiving medical-assisted detoxification at an accredited rehab center is safe. Special care is taken to make sure clients receive the care they need under the supervision of specialized medical professionals. That way, any complications are quickly noticed and addressed. Medical monitoring also ensures safety for clients with underlying health issues or for those who need prescription medications.
As a further commitment to client comfort and safety, AM Healthcare and our partners are Joint Commission-accredited.
