Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Agawam, MA.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Agawam clients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need intensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment 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.
