Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ridley Park, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Ridley Park patients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification facility will keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detox is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
