Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Matheson, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Matheson individuals can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and probably given specific prescription medications which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation center once detox is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
