Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Holliston, MA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Holliston individuals are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. a person suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and likely administered specific prescription drugs that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detox is finished. Most detoxification 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.
