Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Black Hawk, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Black Hawk patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and possibly given specific prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab center once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
