Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - South Freeport, ME.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in South Freeport clients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. an individual with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and possibly administered certain medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may require intensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
