Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Chattanooga clients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and likely given certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can bring about very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification center will ensure their safety.
There is not an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need intensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical 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 rehab center once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
