Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - La Mesa, CA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in La Mesa clients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and possibly given specific medications which works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification facility will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
