Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - McNeil, AR.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in McNeil patients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health complications or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and probably given specific prescription drugs that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification facility can minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each patient in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need to have comprehensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who should to attend an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detox is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
