Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Chester individuals are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and probably administered specific prescription medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox facility would keep them safe.
There isn't an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may require comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
