Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Mankato clients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be observed closely and possibly given specific prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center would ensure their safety.
There is not an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to detox. A person who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who should to go to an actual substance abuse treatment program once detox is finished.
