• Abnormal vital signs and physical exam findings are reported to the physician immediately.
• Resuscitation equipment is available on location at all times during detox, along with IV hydration supplies.
• Initial assessments are performed by the physician and paramedic, EMT or nurse to determine the patient’s suitability for acute medical detox.
• Vital signs are recorded every eight hours and each patient receives a dual diagnosis and psychiatric assessment.
