Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Ringwood, NJ.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Ringwood individuals are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and probably given specific prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility can minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for individuals who should to attend an actual substance abuse treatment program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
