Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Chesterfield, SC.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Chesterfield individuals are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy 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 intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation center once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
