Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Exmore, VA.

Inpatient detoxification is essential when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Exmore clients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person struggling with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and possibly given certain medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact protocol for each client in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol recovery facility once detox is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
