Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Boiling Spring Lakes, NC.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Boiling Spring Lakes individuals can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific prescription medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center will keep them safe.

There is not an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to detox. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment center once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
