Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Muskegon Heights patients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which may bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and possibly administered specific prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.
There is not an exact process for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
