Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Oshkosh, WI.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Oshkosh clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and possibly administered specific prescription medications which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need comprehensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment center once detoxification is finished. Many detox facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for people in recovery.
