Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification facility in El Paso patients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific prescription drugs that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center would keep them safe.
There isn't an exact practice for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol recovery program once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
