Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Corpus Christi clients can be closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and probably given specific prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.
There is not an exact process for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. A person who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while a different person may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol rehab program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
