My Conviction and Your Promise…
Dear Friend,
Dr. Robert Waldman,
24-Hour Care
There is no substitute for 24 hour one on one care. At a treatment center or hospital you will find good, attentive, and skilled nursing care, but they will have other responsibilities whereas our nurse will not have any other commitments except your well-being, comfort and safety. That is a huge advantage.
Confidential Records
Confidential records mean all documents and other records, whether in paper, electronic, or any other form, will remain confidential. All confidential records prepared by or provided to medical staff are and shall remain private. All healthcare records are bound by federal law (HIPAA) to be completely private. There are multiple recorded instances in which electronic records have been hacked and/or publicized. This is why we never use electronic medical records in order to keep your records completely private.

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Detox
What Is Detox?
Drug Detox refers to the body processing or metabolizing any drugs or alcohol in the system and removing the toxic influence from the body. When a person starts the detox process, they can sometimes experience life-threatening withdrawal symptoms. Currently, there are no safe and effective over the counter medications that can address life-threatening withdrawal symptoms. People undergoing withdrawal from alcohol or drugs should place themselves under medical supervision for their own safety and well being.
Is Detox Right For Me?
We will have a comprehensive medical evaluation that will look at multiple factors to determine if this program is right for you. This initial evaluation can be completed over the phone or in person. We will go over family history, psychological functioning, your history of use with drugs and alcohol, your health, and your psychological functioning. We will then go over a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs, and the doctor and the patient will decide together if they are ready to proceed to a home detox.
Is Detoxing From Home Safe?
Detoxing in your home is safe if it is medically supervised by a licensed and qualified detox nurse. With our program, a nurse will be available to assess the client on a twenty four seven basis to ensure they don’t have complications from their detox.
Can I Detox On My Own?
Detoxing can be a physically demanding process that can lead to complications and even death. If you are dependent on drugs or alcohol, you need to consult with a medical professional before you begin your detox. It is also imperative that you have someone there to monitor your detox process.
Withdrawal symptoms from detox can cause physical and emotional pain. There are cases where symptoms from detox can become so intense it leads to premature death. Some substances like Benzodiazepines and alcohol can be very dangerous to detox from and can result in death. Detoxing from these drugs requires medical supervision to ensure that serious complications do not ensue.
