Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Kent, OR.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Kent individuals are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person suffering with alcoholism for instance will need to be watched closely and possibly administered certain prescription drugs which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
