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

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Ravenel individuals are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and likely given specific prescription medications which works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. Someone 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 patient may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
