Inpatient detoxification is essential when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Hillsboro patients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific prescription medications that works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact protocol for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents 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 intervention, while a different person may need intensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
