Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mead, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Mead individuals can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which may bring about health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be closely monitored and probably given certain prescription drugs which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have intensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
