Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Irvine, KY.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Irvine patients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and possibly administered certain prescription drugs that works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility would keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
