Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in St. Marys patients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely administered specific medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detoxification center will keep them safe.
There is not an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab program once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
