Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Leicester, MA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Leicester clients can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
