Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - West Columbia, WV.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in West Columbia individuals can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and possibly given certain medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center will minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
