Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Provincetown clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and probably administered certain prescription drugs that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual 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 another patient may need comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
