In-home detox in Coronado with Kinkaid Private Care can bring evidence-based treatment plans into the home to help you with drug or alcohol withdrawal where you’re most comfortable. An in-home detox plan can provide you with all the essential and potentially life-saving treatments you would find at an inpatient treatment program, but with the added security and comfort of home.
The following is a list of services which we provide in home:
Detoxification is the first step in the substance abuse recovery process and involves the physiological removal of toxic substances, such as drugs or alcohol, from the human body. Detox is required for any substance to which you have become physically addicted, such as alcohol, methamphetamine, cocaine, opiates, or more.
Detox comes with a variety of withdrawal symptoms that vary depending on the individual, the substance to which you are addicted, and the level of your addiction. See below for the types of addiction we treat, along with more information about the withdrawal symptoms for each.

We use an integrated team approach for our in-home detox program to ensure your safe and effective recovery. Our team consists of the following:
Our team is led by a board-certified physician and addiction specialist with more than 20 years of expertise in the field.
Our team of highly qualified detox nurses provide premium care and remain with you throughout your detox process. Also, because you are receiving your care at home, our nurses observe and monitor any potential family interactions and/or home triggers that may hinder your recovery process. They then recommend customized solutions to these issues if need be.
Depending on your situation, your care team may include a behavioral therapist to perform some preliminary evaluation and counseling as needed. Our behavioral therapists have extensive experience in the field of addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions and can help you and your loved ones during your recovery process.
Our aftercare specialist helps direct you toward your next phase of treatment once your detox process is complete. Remember, detox is only the first step in your recovery.
Home detox brings targeted addiction treatment options into the place where our clients feel most comfortable. The process of medically supervised detox begins with a careful assessment procedure to help determine each client’s specific needs, which could include gathering information such as:
With this information in hand, our team creates a custom-tailored treatment intervention designed to treat and address each challenge you may face during the withdrawal process.
Medical detox itself typically takes between 10 and 21 days. The treatment process typically includes providing targeted prescription medications to treat drug and alcohol withdrawal, careful medical observation to track your progress, and mental health support services to help you sustain your recovery.
Your treatment plan will continue to evolve throughout the treatment process, in line with how you are responding to treatment, how your symptoms are progressing, and how your needs and preferences change throughout the process.
Home detox and inpatient treatment both offer a similar set of services and treatment options. But there are distinct differences between these two styles of treatment that can influence which option works best for you, as well as your chances of achieving a sustained recovery.
In addition to our ongoing nursing care, we offer various in-home therapies that help reduce detox symptoms by promoting relaxation, mindfulness, and stress reduction. These therapies include:
How you follow up your detox is just as important as the detox itself. And while it may be tempting to stop your recovery process after detox, you need to continue recovering and do so in a way that is comfortable for you. Our nurses will help you create a comprehensive post-detox plan so you can safely and effectively continue your road to recovery. Learn more about our Detox Aftercare Planning here.
Which organ is involved in the detoxification of drugs and alcohol?
The liver is the primary organ responsible for the detoxification of the body. It removes toxins from the bloodstream, metabolizes drugs and alcohol into nontoxic compounds, and carries away waste products.
What does detoxing feel like?
The withdrawal effects of different drugs vary. People often compare the effects of opioid withdrawal to an intense flu; alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal can include tremors, sweats, and hallucinations; and stimulant withdrawal often parallels severe depression and anxiety. Withdrawing from any drug often includes intense drug cravings as well.
Can I Detox in 24 hours?
Detoxification typically takes between 3-7 days. This can vary depending on the quantity of substances taken, the duration of use, and factors such as your age or weight, but a 24-hour detox is extremely unlikely.
Is detoxing from home safe?
Many drugs are unsafe to detox from without the help of medical professionals, including alcohol, benzodiazepines, or barbiturates. But you can detox safely from home with the help of a medical in-home detox team, who can provide targeted medications and treatments to reduce your withdrawal symptoms.
What should I take to detox?
Have available any medications that you’re currently taking, as well as any relevant medical information that may help your provider determine a treatment plan. Wearing comfortable clothing is also advised – as well as having available anything to occupy your time, such as a book or journal.
We believe that every client deserves deliberate, high-quality, and individualized healthcare without compromise. Allow us to be your advocate, peace of mind has remarkable healing power.
