Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Westmoreland patients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for instance will need to be observed closely and probably given specific prescription drugs which would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact process for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may require intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery program once detox is complete. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
