Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Merritt patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and probably given specific prescription drugs which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox facility will keep them safe.
There isn't an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery center once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
