Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Morris Plains, NJ.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Morris Plains individuals can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering detox. Someone who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
