Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Grafton, NY.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Grafton clients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. an individual struggling with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and likely given certain prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox facility would keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery center once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
