Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Alamo, IN.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Alamo clients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and probably administered specific prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering detox. A person who is basically in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who should to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detox is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
