Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Stirling, NJ.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Stirling individuals can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and probably given certain prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering detox. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
