Inpatient detoxification is essential when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Salem clients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. an individual struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and probably administered specific prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.
There is not an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detox is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
