Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Clark, NJ.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Clark individuals are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered certain prescription medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
