Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Marlboro, VT.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Marlboro patients can be closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment center once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
