Detox
It is our commitment to ensure that each individual receives the appropriate care
when going through detox. There are different detox models, each of which are designed
to assist in the detox episode in very specific ways. The medical detox model is crucial
for the safe detox of those abusing alcohol, opioids, or barbiturates because of the
possibility of severe medical complications in the absence of licensed medical staff on
site. The social detox model is designed to assist those abusing all other substances as
there are easily manageable treatments without onsite medical staff to make the detox
episode comfortable and successful. The goal is to help the person struggling with
addictive behaviours through the first step of recovery, prepared to move to the next step
of therapy and reintegration into daily life and healthy relationships.
