Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Heisson, WA.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Heisson patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and likely administered specific prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center will keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
