Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lancaster, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Lancaster clients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be observed closely and likely administered specific prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
