Frequently asked questions.

 

Why Do I Need To Be Monitored?

Detoxification is the first step in getting clean and sober from alcohol and drug addiction. Because you’ve become dependent on substances outside of your body to function, when removing drugs and alcohol from your system, it will take time for your body to heal and adjust back to its normal state of functioning. Without the proper medication and professional care, this process can be uncomfortable, painful and in some cases, life-threatening. There are many dangerous withdrawal symptoms that can occur during detox, therefore it’s highly recommended that you seek assistance to medically detox in a professional setting with 24-7 monitoring and supervision. Not only can detoxing on your own be dangerous, attempting to detox without professional help is very difficult and will increase the risk of relapse. At South Orange County Detox we provide 24-7 monitoring of withdrawal symptoms to ensure you a comfortable, safe and successful detoxification.

Can I Use My Phone Or Computer?

Phones and computer use are not permitted during detox. We will store your personal valuables in a safe, and all personal property is documented upon intake. Family members and significant others can be put on consent forms to be by our case managers for updates upon request.


Can I Smoke or Vape?

Yes, vaping and smoking are permitted in designated smoking areas.
