Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Indianapolis clients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and possibly administered certain medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.
There is not an exact practice for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may need intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
