Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Onset, MA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Onset clients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and possibly given specific medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone 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 to have comprehensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detox is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
