Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Greenfield clients can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and likely given specific prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.
There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
