Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Prescott Valley individuals are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and probably given certain prescription medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility will ensure their safety.
There is not an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
