Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Evergreen, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Evergreen patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and possibly administered specific prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox center can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment program once detox is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
