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 setting in Ronkonkoma clients can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance would need to be observed closely and likely administered specific medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility would keep them safe.
There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
