Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Flagtown, NJ.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Flagtown individuals can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and likely given specific prescription drugs that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
