Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Spring Lake Park, MN.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Spring Lake Park patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain prescription drugs which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may require intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab center once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
