There are several types of drug detox programs. In Nevada, some of the main programs focus on detox, short-term inpatient treatment less than 60 days, outpatient treatment and long term inpatient treatment. The patients are either admitted via walk-ins, hospitals or come from police custody. In Nevada drug rehab and detox centers accept patients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Drug rehab is a serious and arduous process, so it’s very important that addicts and their families be educated on all the options available.

When entering a rehab program, detox is one of the first things done to cancel out up to years of drug and alcohol abuse to undo the negative changes in the body and brain. Several different types of programs are available in Nevada, so there are plenty to choose from.

The University of Nevada, Reno is the oldest university in the state of Nevada and Nevada System of Higher Education. In 1886, the state university, previously only a college preparatory school, moved from Elko in remote northeastern Nevada to a site north of downtown Reno, where it became a full-fledged state college. The university's first building, Morrill Hall, still stands on the historic quad at the campus' southern end. The university grew slowly over the decades, but has begun to expand rapidly along with the rest of the state and currently has an enrollment of approximately 16,000, with most students hailing from within Nevada. Among its specialties are mining engineering, agriculture, journalism, business, and one of only two Basque Studies programs in the nation. It also houses the National Judicial College, the only judicial college in the United States.
