Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Dixie, WV.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Dixie clients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and possibly given certain medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification center would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering detox. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
