Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Hartman, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Hartman patients are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly given certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detox is finished. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
