Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Maynard, MA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Maynard clients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and possibly given specific medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
