Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Bettendorf patients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and likely given certain prescription medications which works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.
There is not an exact process for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
