Information on Medical Detox in Canada

When coming to the realization that you or a family member needs to get off drugs which you are addicted to, it is important to figure out which drug treatment program is best for you.  One of the most important points to figure out during an assessment is whether you can benefit from the popular and healthy drug withdrawal program or if you are in need of medical detox, which is not recommended save for the fact that some people need to literally have their vitals monitored as they could actually end up losing their lives if they are at such a point that their bodies would shut down because of their excessive drug use.

Withdrawing drug free is a highly successful and encouraged route to take but there are times when the withdrawal process does need to be monitored and aided by medical professionals.  How does one determine which route is best for him or her?  The answer lies within a full assessment that should be done by the intake counselor where you have decided to go. It could be a residential rehab, a medical detox, etc.  If you are not given an intake assessment, you are advised that it is not healthy to go into a program without one so this would be a good time to get a second opinion.  We firmly believe that drug withdrawal without medication is the best route but more importantly, we have the physical health of the patient as our priority and would do a full intake with you before having you stay at the center.  We are first for the best interest of the patient, which is why we have a high success rate.  We will recommend you for a medical detox if our professional intake counselors feel it is in your best interests.  That alone should tell you that we put you first.
