There is not an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering detox. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to attend an actual substance abuse recovery program once detoxification is finished.
