At Retreat we will make the detox process as comfortable as possible for each patient. I can assure you it is nothing like what you see in the movies. The patient will be given a full medical evaluation by our nursing staff who is on site 24/7. We also have an MD who is also on site throughout the day and available 24/7. The patient will be given comfort medications throughout this process once assessed by our medical team.
