Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Woodland, MS.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Woodland clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. a person suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely given certain prescription drugs that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering detox. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
