Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Oconee, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Oconee patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and possibly given certain medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox facility would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
